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:
Listen to Ande... Just get out and DO IT. The swimming bug will bite- hard. :D It had been 31 years since I competed high school swimming, then I checked out the USMS website. I had been swimming since last June just for fitness, but decided to join Masters on a whim. I thought I would read Swimmer Magazine, check out the forums, and see how I felt about competing again. Then, I got hooked... :bliss:
Read Ande's Tips, stay tuned into the forums; engage. You will get hooked and you won't look back. The "forumites" are a great motivator and support system; especially if you don't have access to a team. I work out on my own, but I consider these guys and gals MY team! :D
Good luck!!! :cheerleader:
