Hi. :help:
Was just wondering how you handle practicing by yourself. My team only practices two times a week and that is obviously not enough time in the water to improve. At practice, we do anywhere between 3,200 and 3,800... and I usually do the same when I swim by myself (right now I'm getting in two solo practices, but I'd like to do more). Usually the USS team or High School is practicing at the same time and that sorta helps get me moving. But how do you guys motivate yourself to keep going - because weekly I am starting to ask myself - "why am I doing this"... when I'm trudging along solo. I do compete and love it... but I just get down and in the gutters once in a while. I usually get my workouts from the "workout forum" here on the site... but do you have any thoughts on how to get more motivated? I hope I don't sound desperate, but just need some feedback from those who are going thru the same thing.

I have almost always worked out alone since I have been out of college. When I do workout with a group, it is such a treat. When I was really sick, it was so much easier to do it alone because I never had to explain to anyone why I could only swim maybe 400 yards on some days.
I wasn't able to swim during the fall. Now I am back. I am not to where I was in August but i am amazed at how fast the i am gettign back in shae.
