Out of curiosity, what brought you to swim?
I'm a fitness swimmer now and do OW races for fun. I began swimming as an alternative to running, I had taken a swim class in college that demonstrated routines and corrected my form enough to do well without getting frustrated or feel intimidated. When I had trouble running I would go swim instead. I began swimming regularly to train for the Long beach triathlon years ago. Now I enjoy swimming just as much as running...it's a new challenge as well as a great stress release for me. I'm just finishing up my credential and will be transitioning from a career in IT to teaching, which means that i'll be open to joining a masters team soon! Wohoo!
Here's the question....
Why did you start?
When?
What's your day job?
I started swimming masters because I found a great club that has early practices (445am).
You sure did! :) Fortunately, they have my favorite Sunday 9:15 am practice too.
Running injuries introduced me to masters swimming in 2006. That and my daughter's coach, who told me to "get my ass back in the pool."
Day job, very part time lawyer and very full time mommy.
