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:

I didn't set a goal, but I swam 385.49 miles in 2010!!
I was only swimming 3 days a week for the first three months of the year, but upped it to 5 days/week. I did take a big hit in distance in August when the pool closed for 2 weeks for maintenance. I'm not going to set a distance goal for 2011, but my goal is to adhere a little more strictly to the workouts, try to hit intervals in training and put a little more effort into my dryland fitness.
