Hi everyone, any advice is appreciated... I'm signed up for a few open water swims this summer, but I haven't been able to get my motivation up to swim lately. It's been months, really...and I LOVE open water. I want to do well! What's wrong with me? How do I bust out of this swimming funk?? :badday:
I think we all go get into a funk now and then. What really helps me is to swim with other people. If you're not part of a Masters group, find one near you and join them. Working out with other like-minded folks who love swimming is highly motivating and fun.
I also swim open water and have a buddy who goes with me to swim on a regular basis. If he isn't available, my oldest daughter comes along and follows me in a kayak. Just having company can make such a huge difference.
