Holiday Swim Achievements, 12-24-07 to 1-6-08

Dear All, Thanksgiving swim activities of forum participants showed big determination on the part of many, big yardage, and maybe a dash of refuge seeking. Swimming over end-of-year holidays has a completely different rhythm: holiday/family obligations are greater, taking time from swimming, but there is also the wonderful, once-a-year New Year's swim, different for every coach and club. Any big achievements over this period? Bananas? How did you manage migrating pool schedules? What is planned/did occur for New Year's swim? Regards, VB

  • Kristina I am doing the Winter Classic here in Savannah, so is my 9 year old son. Mom and son in the same meet. In February I will be doing the Mt. Pleasant meet in SC the same weekend my son has a meet at our pool which his dad will cart him to in my absence. It was really humbling being beaten by 2 11 year olds at practice Friday night. It is a great challenge though and I love it. Coach used me to keep them on the correct interval and them to push me. Well it is time to go to practice.
