After a 20+ year lay-off I started swimming again in the spring of 2007. I was a decent D-I college swimmer from 1982-1986, and in the interim I got fat, ran marathons, and road cycled, in no particular order.
Since resuming swimming, I have continued my old habit of recording my workouts, weight, etc quite rigorously.
This summer at LCM Nationals I came very close to my (unrealistic) goals in my two main events, the 50 and 100 ***.
Next summer I will have aged up to the 45-49 age group, and I hope to give Mr. Guthrie a run for his money (haha).
My question:
Should I start a swimming blog? Is anyone interested in reading about the training of a sprint breastroker (30.4 and 1:08. LCM this summer)?
If so, should I create it on a special site, or here at the forums like Ande has done?
What type of information would readers find interesting - just workout sets, or also detailed times, diet, moods, etc?
FYI, I train alone, typically during the lunch hour, either in an indoor 25m pool or (during the summer) in an outdoor 48y pool (that's no typo).
Fire away!
I would definately be interested in seeing your training, thoughts, techniques, etc. I love reading other folks blogs as it helps to give me ideas or reinforce something that I am trying to work on.
On another note: I have GOT to do a better job of chasing down forumites at meets. A chance to meet you and introduce myself missed.
