I only managed 1500 yards. I couldn&#39;t do a 500, only a 200. Of course I know to listen to my body. :) That&#39;s why I only did 1500 total. It got easier as I went along, but I didn&#39;t want to push myself too much. I LOVED IT. I had SO MUCH FUN. It&#39;s great to be back. :D<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/2917?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 12 Jun 2002 05:51:32 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:417d072a-adf4-40d7-a896-b2089edfcb44Former MemberWelcome back Matt... Remember that Rome was not built in a day...Over the years I have watched many swimmers come back and push way to hard and first and lose sight of the fact that this can be a journey...as opposed to a destination. Listen closely to your body at first.... Again, welcome back...your going to enjoy a lot of great people here.<div style="clear:both;"></div>
