Expert  1059   Lakeville, MN |  Subject: Mid-March ChallengeI don't know about you, but swim training has been lack luster so far this off season. Anyone up to a mid month challenge? I am more concerned about getting my butt to the pool, then I am the distance, so if anyone else wants to join me in this mid-month challenge so we can hold each other accountable that would be great. My goal is to get to the pool AT LEAST 3x per week Who else is in, and what is your goal? |

Extreme Veteran 546 Oakland, Florida | Subject: RE: Mid-March Challenge I am in. Same issue as you. I am a slow swimmer. I can do the distance just slow. The last few weeks I have only gone once or twice. I went today so my week is starting off on the right foot. Plan a Tuesday and Thursday swim this week. |

Veteran 258 Plainfield, IL | Subject: RE: Mid-March Challenge I had a swim on my calendar for lunch today, but I had to call an audible because the sun was shining and my bike was crying, opted for a bike ride instead. So now I have 4 days to squeeze in my 3 swims. Nice. |

Extreme Veteran 546 Oakland, Florida | Subject: RE: Mid-March Challenge 2nd swim of the week 2500 yards. Doing the third this Friday! If I succeed it will be my first three swims in a week since I started back swimming in December. I have a Oly tri in a month and a HIM in two months I need all of these I can get. I glad we threw this challenge out there! |

Veteran 258 Plainfield, IL | Subject: RE: Mid-March Challenge So I finally made it to the pool this morning for a 2,000 yd swim. I have Masters Swim tomorrow, so I made 2 out of 3 this week. Not fantastic, but at least it is more than half.

Expert 1694 Illinois | Subject: RE: Mid-March Challenge Well crud, no lap swim tonight at the pool although I am not sure why. Tomorrow is fine though, so I will get 2 out of 3 for this week. |

Good job on 2 out of 3! |
