It's the Friday after Turkey day and I'm at work bored so I wanted to put mine out there to get them in black and white so to speak so here goes:
(SCY at SCY Nats, May '08)
Goal Current Drop
50 Free: 23.00 24.96 1.96
100 Free: 51.50 56.83 5.33
50 Fly: 25.50 27.67 2.17
100 IM: 1:00.00 1:04.51 4.51
How I plan on getting there:
Swim 3-4xweek with an emphasis on stroke improvement and not yardage.
Do more stroke drills.
Build up my kicking. It's really weak right now.
Work starts and turns.
Stretch 2xday for 15 minutes
Reduce body fat by 2-3% which should be about 7-10 pounds of weight loss
Implement a basic weight training routine to increase power.
Sleep more.
Others are more than welcome to post thier goals so we can all encourage each other.
Comments more than welcome.

don't worry about swimming particular times
don't let your happiness hang on whether you swim a time or not
Decide on
which events you're going to train for and
Which meets you're going to compete in
Then train hard and smart,
with the idea of improving as much as you can in a few events
I suggest you
Swim 4 - 6x week with an emphasis on stroke improvement and SPEED not yardage. Speed up starts and turns
Kick FAST
Lose Weight
Lift weights Get Stronger
Sleep more.
Stretch 2xday for 15 minutes
