Hey
So, I am kind of new on here, I've been here for a month or so, but I still feel new here, I do not know anyone, and no one knows me! I am sure there are other people on here who are newer as well, and would like to meet all you long time members:-D
So I propose we start a thread just introducing yourself and maybe saying a thing or two about yourself, where your from, what you swim, whatever information you would like to share with the group:wave:
Hopefully, this isn't a completely lame idea?

Hi everyone, my first post after a month of reading yours' intently; I'm a 42 y/o with no competitive experience who started swimming masters 7 months ago and have gone from 10 laps huffing and puffing to 3400 yards in each of my 3 weekly workouts - and feeling pretty good about it too! Don't worry, however, I still have goals; lane one is getting old and so is watching the young ones blow by me in the higher lanes. I'm a long time basketball addict and as my knees and back have been giving out I had forsaken finding an outlet for my competitiveness until I stumbled on swimming - my 9y/o is in USA. He gives me instruction on my technique, which is humbling, but I reassure myself that I'm still taller than he is. My goal this year is to enter my first meets, get some baseline times, and then start whittling them down! I have enjoyed reading many of your discussions, especially those offering technique tips (to my son's chagrin)!
