This year has been the first year of my three swimming so far that I've kept a log of my yardage. I didn't realize it at the time, but in doing the math this late night/early morning, I crossed 1,000,000 yards on Wednesday, November 16th. It happened sometime during my early morning workout at Santa Clara Swim Club, probably at the exact same moment I was resting at the wall and the flying hand of the hapless lady I shared a lane with whacked my nose! My nose was sore for the rest of the day.
These are my totals per month:
Jan: 100,700
Feb: 106,750
Mar: 110,350
Apr: 121,840
May: 68,261
Jun: 106,948
Jul: 79,725
Aug: 50,950
Sep: 107,100
Oct: 63,850
Nov: 111,000 (so far)
Has anyone else crossed a million yards this year? Getting close?
Tonight I read an article that said Michael Phelps swam 43 miles last week.
He doesn't have to leave the pool to go to work, doesn't count.
I think I'm close to 1 million yards, more like 1.1 actually. But that is my lifetime odometer (since August 2008):cane:
