No - not that kind of streak swimming, you naughty monkey...
First:
I was just wondering if anyone keeps track of the number of consecutive days that they have been swimming without a day off. You get to decide what distance/type of workout constitutes a workout, I suppose. The challenge here might be swimming on holidays unless you live in the South or southern California or unless you are a member of several pools including one at a Jewish Community Center (some are open on Christmas).
Second:
Does anyone keep track of total accumulated lifetime mileage/kilometerage (is that a word?)?
This sort of discussion is common in the running world (I had 11 years+ of racewalking without a day off until I injured my back), but I'm not sure I've ever seen it discussed in swimming.

There was an article in the Raleigh News and Observer recently about a fellow in his 80s who is approaching the 3000 mile mark in swimming. He started in the early-mid 1970s and goes 900 a day. I don't think he is registered as a Masters's swimmer.
Swim fast,
Greg
