Too Much Swimming ?

Apologies in advance to anyone who does not live in my geographical area. I know that some geographical areas do not have the opportunites that I have in my geographical area. Do I swim too much? Aside from normal workouts I have participated in quite a number of swim meets/events in the last rolloing 12 months. Long Beach - SCM Mission Viejo - SCY Santa Clarita - SCY Pasadena (Rose Bowl) - SCY Pasadena (CalTech) - SCY Irvine - SCY Woodland Hills - SCY Los Angeles - SCY Pasadena (Senior Games) LCM Los Angeles - SCM 3,000 Yard Postal Brute Challenge (Postal) Sprint Pentathalon (Postal) Middle Distance Pentathalon (Postal) Iron Man Pentathalon (Postal) One Hour Postal Swim I Swam A Marathon (Postal) Piers & Beers (Open Water) Corona Del Mar (Open Water) When I combine all these together I have completed three complete Check-Off Challenges. Not included above is Go The Distance. 2013 is the first time I have tried Open Water Swimming events. Also not listed above are my Swim-A-Thons.

  • Questions to ask yourself that would answer your own question: 1. Are you having fun? 2. Do you still feel like you want to swim and can't wait until you get back in the water? 3. Are you staying injury free? 4. Do you still have enough energy to work and do other activities aside from swimming? 5. Are you sleeping and eating well (no insomnia or loss of appetite)? If you can answer "Yes!" to all these questions, then I would say the answer to your question is "NO!" :cheerleader: Keep on swimmin' and keep on having fun!
