Hey guys,
So I just wanted to share with you all that I set a goal to swim 50,000 yards this summer (i.e by the time class starts). It took me about two months, but yesterday I swam my last 1500 yards!!! I'm so happy that I managed to meet this goal, and I wanted to put it on this forum because this is the place I came to when I had zero motivation and couldn't bare the thought of swimming even one more lap. You guys also give such great tips and advice.
This goal has been instrumental in getting me to commit to seriously swimming and to help me rediscover how much I loved it. When I started I could barely swim a straight 100 yards, and by the end I had dropped 10 minutes off my 1500, about 40 seconds off my 100, and learned strokes other than freestyle.
Anyway, I mainly posting this to say thanks for all the advice and motivation, and I hope this is just the beginning of things!
