WOW I am tired. I hit the wall early in practice today but kept plugging along. I am a 41 year old female who has been out of the water for 22 years ( competitivley). I have been told that is common and it will get better. How long to build up ones endurance and when does it get easier, though I know you will always have to push yourself. I just see some of the longterm swimmers glidding through the water like it is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo easy. I must admit I am swimming much better than I thought I would be for how long it has been. I am swimming at 5:30 am. Do you eat before you go? and if so what. I also have a bit of a lower calf cramp. Tomorrows practice should be something :thhbbb:. But I am determined to do this. I need to get in shape lose some weight and just really love the swimming. SIGH Katie

    YOU SWIM AT 4:30 AM:cheerleader:WOW I thought 5:30 was early enough. I do my workout then head to work for 7:30 am. It will get better right. Yes new toys are fun even if they are yellow. LOL. I could use a couple new suits myself. But will wait until I really need them. Have a good swim tomorrow morning. Katie
