Help!! I just signed up and now officially a Master Swimmer....Now What??? I really don't know where to start......
I used to swim in High School....a long time ago. I now take my son to swimming and stay and usually read a book when I noticed "older swimmers"......so now instead of reading I want to swim!!
I'll be swimming during open swim (so no coach avail), I'm about 100 pounds overweight......Does anyone have any suggestions on what I should do...how I start this??? :confused: I want to start tomorrow, Monday, Jan 4.
Thank you so much!!! :)

Suzie -
I started back in swimming 5 years ago - after a short 25 year break. Ande is right, start with what you can do and build up.
I would suggest that you try to find a masters team to workout with. You don't know how many times I would go to the Y to "swim a couple of thousand" only to talk myself into shorter and shorter distances after I got started ("maybe only 300 today") . Being with a group and a coach really makes a difference.
Bes of luck to you
