Sure is nice when you actually start to swim rather than struggle. Way to go!

Good job! It feels good to get through that struggling threshold doesn't it?

As I have posted before, I started swimming not to long ago in anticipation of my first tri next spring. At first I had trouble even swimming a lap. It took me a while to work up to 75 yards without resting. Then a couple weeks ago I did 300 yards. Last week I swam 500 yards without stopping and thougth that was a big jump. It was hard and I have been concerned that I would be able to ever swim olympic distance. Then this morning I went to the pool and started swimming with the goal of hitting 500 yards again. I hit 500 yards and just kept going and going and going. I didn't stop till I hit 1500 yards. I'm there!! I couldn't believe it. I still have until May to improve my time. It took my 30 minutes to swim 1500 yards. I'm still in shock.
