Master ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Scott here. My current goal is 13,000 yards. I may increase that, but we will see how the first couple of weeks go. This challenge might be my inspiration to go for a 2.4 mile swim which is boring in the pool but oh well we shall see. |

My goal is 16,500 yards this month. It may change, once I find out the pool schedule for the month. All I know right now is that they'll be closed for at least several days, and possibly two weeks. If it's just several days, I should be able to hit my goal. If it's two weeks, well, I'd better be in the water until I look like a prune! LOL Dee |

Champion ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Hiya, Im Cat, Im a kiwi living in Australia. Ive had some pretty full on months and my training has been chaotic at best so Im hoping this is a chance to turn it all around... especially since I love to swim! Just have to get to the pool in the first place Depite it being summer here right now, its gray, cold and pouring with rain today... I may need to find any indoor pool I can tolerate as I swim in an outdoor 50m pool whenever I can! My goal for the month is... umm.... not 100% sure! Any suggestions? |

I'm like noticing a disturbing trend here.... Aren't your numbers supposed to go UP? Hmm.............. Do I need to take out my whip? ![]() Edited by D001 2007-11-30 7:05 PM |

Well, I do understand meters/metres. But your log was in yards for me. LOL (Must have to do with my default settings.) I think Spokes said he wouldn't even do 50 nanometers. I suggested Angstroms. He nixed that idea, too. At this point, I think he's going to refuse to shower for the entire month -- just to make a statement. LOL |

Not sure whether to be cautious or ambitious! Be.... realistic? You know you've got some events coming up, so a few days are unavailable already. Also, will your pool be closed for a few days? (Mine will.) And remember, I've got a whip. That might help. If not, how about if I post pics of Ian Thorpe? ![]() (You don't get pics of Cadel or Robbie this month.) |
