Did the same workout as Monday...another 1800m...I've now exceeded my goal. I should be able to get in another swim on Monday, and perhaps also on the 31st.

Hector, is it correct that we don't get any extra credit for going beyond 120% of our goal? Can the goal be increased if we get into this situation? 

Exactly, you'll need to increase your goal to get any credit. So if you already exceeded your goal it can only do you good to raise it. Just make sure you can accomplish it before the end of the month.

Sorry, i had a busy morning at work. hopefully i answered your swimming question.

OK, please raise my goal to...14000m 

You are too cool! I will update it in our log.

But your always invited to any of our parties

Pshaw - if we were having a party, you'd be a guest of honor! Raising your swim goals like that - very impressive...

I would never have a party without any of you. I consider all of you as my party favors. hehehe

Hello Elves!

I swam 900 yards today... this is all good and well except that my goal is in meters sooooooooo...

Hector, 900 yards = 822.96 meters (do ya think we can round to 823?  I promise I got in and out on the steps and it was easily .04 meters .)

I will need a picture of the area to include a measuring stick for verification and a signed witness statement. LOL

It's a good thing I was gone all day, too!  I would have been feeling lonely without all of my BT friends!

Sounds like you must be getting some good swim advice

glad to hear you had a great swim!

Actually your the one that turned me onto You Tube, Thanks! Your right i did follow your great advice. Don't worry I didn't overdue it and i won't run till next week. 

Good job, Hector!  What did you do?  I'm struggling with increasing my speed.

Wow!! Sounds like everyone is having great success this month in the water.

Let's see if I can do so good with wrapping... let the wrapping marathon begin!!

I wanted to do a 1500 the other day, too.  I got kicked out by the swim team when I was at 1000.

Good job, It feels great when your distance starts to increase.

I can't do that spin thing at the end of the lanes so I decided to the the touch and push method that I saw in You Tube. Now i don't have to stop and turnaround at each end.

No problems here, I have access to my pool anytime.

Ok start with slow folding movements to increase your base followed by fast taping drills to increase you speed. You'll be turning out gifts by the dozen's in no time. LOL

Just make sure you rest your fingers in between wrappings, we don't want any finger related injuries.
