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!

Yes. Put everything in, more interesting that way. I just hope you do something other than evilstroke!
