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:
Achieved a new personal best in my usual 500 breaststroke (as part of my workout) - a smooth 11m43s. (But Badger, you say. That's not very fast at all. And I said, well, considering that 5 years ago I was working to get below 18m, I would say it's not half bad). My goal/aim/directive/hope is to swim in a couple of local open-water events come the summer (1/2 mile to 1mile), and achieve a moderately reasonable time so. Slowly getting faster.
Great job Badger! I can barely do 50y *** and here you're going that distance. Nice work! Hey, every little bit of tme you can knock down is fantastic. Don't worry about what the other people are doing, just focus on you and the rsults will come. :)
