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,
