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

    Thanks Geek and Bill. Tennessee Tumble Swim freestyle but anytime you are inside the flags area you dive down, swim free underwater, do a flip turn fully submerged, and push off past the flags all while underwater. It's a bit of a lungbuster until you get used to it. Interesting...we call that a Texas Tumble.
