I used to be a competitive swimmer. Now I am much older, I start swimming again just for fitness and I would like to set a goal for myself. My goal is to swim 1 mile of breastroke (breastroke is my specialty) daily; it takes me 35 minutes to swim 1 mile. My question is what is the average time to swimm 1 mile of breastroke? Thanks

    Not my cup of tea, really. I don't get a kick out of seeing others struggle with a stroke. YMMV. I'm also not sure why you were insisting that you never said you couldn't swim breaststroke one minute and the next you are claiming we all should be laughing at you because you can't! I'd rather cheer you on as you work on getting better. :) I was merely pointing out that up til then I had not yet said anything about my skills, so don't assume I'm a bitter "looser". The reason my struggles are funny is that when I'm in shape, I'm the fastest, hardest working freestyler at either of the clubs I train with. It really is entertaining to see someone I lap in a 300 during practice crush me by 11 seconds/100 in a different stroke.
