Calling all New England POOLtriots

Yeah, what they said !

Actually I think we're doing a little better than the numbers show - those were the totals as of 12/4 and a lot of the team has been doing some good work this week. Also, some of the people aren't logging their workouts, so I had to submit them as zero.

We New Englanders are a steady, persevering bunch, so I have no doubt we will prevail...

I'm getting in the pool more, and I have bad news and good news.

The bad news is I'll be away from Saturday to Tuesday........

The good news is I'll be St. John, US Virgin Islands, and will do lots of open water swimming!  Woo hoo!!!! Eat your heart out!  But I'll probably get my yards in there.

Dang, that's TOO WONDERFUL for words...I can only Dream of open water, warm water swimming! 

Instead, I carry on here in frigid MA at the indoor chlorine tank.

Today:  Another 2,100 for me getting me to 4,200, which is just past 25% of my 16,000 goal.

It is not quite the middle of the month. As of todays swim I am 50 yards over 50% of my goal.

How are we doing Pooltriots?

Who's on track for 50% or better of your goal by Friday?

I've gotten all my swims in so far, 12,500 yards.

My goal is 25,250 so I still have a way to go.

I'm at 6300 yards so I'm little over 1/2 way there.  I'll be swimming tomorrow as long as the roads aren't a total mess.

Go POOLtriots!!!! I don't want to be displaying an @$$ for my avitar in January. 

Enjoy your final challenge laps, MAtriMom!

I'm going for 3000+ this Saturday (tomorrow)!!

Cheers, -Sunny

I'm way behind ....I was sick and missed many workouts over the course of the first two weeks. Who wants some coughing up half a lung in the pool? I did get three workouts in this week and did my first ever swim during lunch. I still have 10,200 yds to do. My left shoulder is acting up like last year...if it gets worse I'll be off swimming for awhile.

Cool thing, I swam my first 50 yds under a minute tonight! It seems when I don't swim for maybe a week the second or third swim back is when I get faster...weird.

Seriously I normally swim 1200 yds or so which means 8.5 swims for the rest of the month. Normal week is 3. If I do 1500 yds I need 6.8 more swims. I think I need to plan my time better and spend a bit more time at the pool each workout. With five kids, year end at work, it is going to be tough for me to make it.
