Congrats. I was in the same boat with not being able to swim more than 50 yards without feeling like I was going to die. It's been a slow progression. I'm doing mid 2 minutes for 100 yards right now. Nothing really consistent time wise though. I can't wait til I can get below 2:25 and hold it for 1000 meters.
jgerbodegrant - 2010-02-09 12:40 PM Nice job! Just curious, but did you time yourself when you first started?
Unfortunately when I first started I couldn't swim more than 25 yards without stopping! When I first started being able to do 100 yards non-stop my time was ~2:45...somewhere around there.
Ha ha......exactly my situation 1 1/2 years ago, 25 whole yards. Great job, keep swimming and watch your times gradually go down lower. Excellent work.
