So we have a "swim rant" thread, but I wanted to post my "swim happy" moment today, probably brought on by being out of the water for over a week.
Pool reopened after maintenance + clear, fresh perfect temp water + 6 lap lanes between 4 lap swimmers = 4200yd :bliss:
As a follow up to this ( forums.usms.org/showthread.php, I witnessed my swim student reach her goal of being able to swim a straight 25 yard freestyle without a snorkel. :cheerleader: She did it after our lesson was over, while I was packing up my gear. I looked up to see her going... and going... and going. I figured Gail would stop at any moment before reaching the wall, but, she persevered and made it! And, that was after she swam her first 50 yard backstroke- and, then, did it two more times! :ohyeah:
