One of our local clubs,Tualatin Hills Barracudas,is sponsoring the February Fitness Challenge again this year.The info is at www.barracudas.org/.../webFFCentry-letter2012.pdf .This is a unique event in that it rewards consistency as well as distance.If you swim at least 20 days in Feb. you get a "silver" frog pin.If you swim 27 days in Feb you get a "gold" frog pin.If you swim 100,000 yards you get another pin.
Unfortunately they haven't linked up to GTD yet so you must transfer your data.It is still kind of a cool event.
I did this event in 1993-I just checked those results and saw that I had over 100,000 yards, I remember swimming every day but one in February and doing lots of 5000 yd workouts. I will try it again this year. It will be fun to compare the results to those from 1993 and see how many swimmers in my age group are still at it. Thanks for the link.
