Swimming

So I recently started doing some serious (or at least pretty serious) swimming. I actually got a real swimming suit (nike jammers) and goggles and set a weekly swimming time.

At first I could only make it to the end of the pool before I had to take a break. Then I could do a full lap without stopping.

Well last week I hit a new mark. I swam a full mile without stopping at all. I was pretty tired at the end but very happy that I had made it!

So what is the next mark- 1.5 miles, 2 miles? or just faster?

J-Dawg! Swimming?! Are you hinting at a future triathlon endeavor? As for goals, I'd put not drowning at the top of the list!

Not drowning is certainly at the top of my list of goals. We will see about any triathlons in the future. I miss competing and until I get a bike that I don't worry about crashing or I have the money to replace my frame if I do crash it limits me to time trials. So if I did go the Tri route I would really want to go for the longer stuff. We will see but for now it is cross season and hopefully my hardtail mountain bike won't be too heavy!
