I won't be in.  Kids basketball is domineering and IM training will be starting.  No time for challenges for the rest of this year.  Sorry.

So does that mean you will not be swimming?

I think it means no time for post padding, and what's a challenge without post padding?!?

I just can't imagine a world without Phil's post padding in it....

It's happened before.  The world won't stop, hell won't freeze over, etc. etc.

Yup, that's the reason your post count is so low. 

Is that a hint of sarcasm and a shot of wit I sense, dear?

Okay.  Here's the deal.

I have 2 kids on a traveling basketball team.  The place is almost 40 min. away from home.  They either have a practice or game or an age-appropriate fitness class on Sun., Mon., Tues., Wed., and Thurs., and a tournament on Sat. and/or Sun.

Now, with IM training coming up, that's going to be quite a lot of schedule shifting.

Add to that, I found out that my pool will be closed starting May 17 until June 7 or so.  BASTAGES!

So, the only thing I can think of is getting in 10 swim workouts, minimum of 500 yards in per workout, before May 17th.

Is that acceptable?  You make the call.

Now that you put it that way.  No one needs more stress added to the stress. I don't think it is worth getting wet. 

 I think you should focus on your kids and getting to the pool for a more quality swim.  Any open water close by? I know it is probably still cold.

Count me in for my first challenge of 2009!!!!

10 swim sessions this month for me and I am male.....well I was the last time I checked.

let's go guys.......I can't wait to see all those great looking assatars of the losing ladies in June

Welcome to:

Im sure Yanti wont mind... feel free to jump into the girls thread whenever you have the time!

Its chatty in there!

Is it too late to join. I'm a swimming machine. HA! That really is a joke, but I  am at the pool 3 x a week on average so maybe I can help to kick some boy booty.

Hi Lynn! With that kind of attitude how can the girls say no - come join us!

Uh so can I say I'll swim for 8 hours this month? Not all at once. That would be just ridiculous.  Right?

I would like to join in too if it is not too late. I of course would be on the Girls team. I am in for 10 hours for the month.

That way I can get my butt in the pool.....the fear of the assatar. eek!

Chris

Okay, great I'm in for 10 hours in May-- that will put me an hour over last months swimming time. Game on!

Me too! 30K for May.

All you guys, eat my bubbles!
