The 2011 Go the Distance fitness event is now open. More than 2,200 members participated in 2010; why don't you join them for 2011?
Go The Distance is an online self-directed fitness program intended to encourage Masters swimmers to regularly exercise and track their progress. Swimmers may strive to reach a number of distance milestones and automatically receive recognition for their achievements and awards at certain milestones.
To get started, you will need to set up your FLOG (Fitness Log) on the USMS web site. Instructions can be found here:

HAPPY NEW YEAR! :party2: :cheerleader: :wine:
I would like to think that everyone participating was being honest. I know of a couple of people who chose to save up their distances for several months and entered them all at once.
J 40.95; F 45.36; M 52.82; A 44.09; M 60.3; J 104.14; Ju 164.85; Au 132.17; S 105.38; O 99.42; N 535.25; D 268.43
Monthly mileage like this looks suspicious, that's what I was meaning. :argue:
When we are being "rewarded" by sponsors with gift certificates and such, it seems that we should be honestly receiving them. If I could put any number down on my taxes it would be nice also, but they have a way to check on this.
