Feel free to post both your short-term and long-term goals here relating to your swimming either as achievements with or without competition.
Here is my short-term goal while I am visiting in Texas:
To swim from the Joe Pool Lake Beach to the dam and back. Distance: 9.68 miles. I want to do this before October 6th.
The interesting thing is because I am in Texas, I have not been swimming the mileage I was doing when in Roatan. I have sort of been in a state of tapering throughout the week with a long swim on Sundays. AND, I am swimming further on those Sundays. Instead of swimming 6 miles, 4xweek, I am doing 4 miles three times a week with a long swim on Sundays; quite a reduction. The thought of over-training comes to mind as I ponder all this.
Next goal: 13 mile swim by end of November.
What are your goals?

1. To do more race pace training in practice and time myself frequently on all out swims.
2. Continue to experiment with swim toys and unconventional training methods.
3. To get a bunch of times with .99 at the end of them. I only have one so far and feel very deprived.
4. To keep beating Muppet in the LCM 50 fly.
5. To carry on with shoulder rehab, even though it's a huge pain in the ass.
6. To swim well and meet great folks at Austin. :bouncing:
