I am looking to begin swimming again. I would also like to compete. There is a group near me with times I can go, I just need to get in there. I swam competively for 3 years in HS, and haven't since. I also taught swimming lessons, and lifeguarded for 4 years. My HS swimming was cut short by a pregnancy in the beginning of my senior year, or I probably would have swam at college as well... I used to be pretty good, and really enjoyed all aspects of swimming. Any tips for a "newbie"? TIA!

Get in the pool, the water is beckioning :)
Remember how good it feels to be in the water!
Joining a Masters team is great. A LOT more motivating than doing it on your own.
Plus, swimmers are usually really nice and friendly people. Since joining the team, I made some great new friends, of all ages.
