Expert 640 Montreal | Subject: RE: January Side Challenge - Outstroke - Outlast - Outswim Great Swimming everybody. I need one more trip to the pool to make my distance. Missing 50m , yes folks only 2 more lenghts of the pool is all I need. We need art work for the avitars. |

Master 2287 Calgary, Alberta | Subject: RE: January Side Challenge - Outstroke - Outlast - Outswim Make that 8 people who have made their goal. I just noticed that Micawber made his goal. Maybe I shouldn't be updating the spreadsheet while drinking my weekly glass of red wine. Good job Micawber. Attachments ---------------- Sole Swimmer Challenge - Week 4.xls (36KB - 52 downloads) |

Lethbridge, Alberta Bronze member | Subject: RE: January Side Challenge - Outstroke - Outlast - Outswim Yes, I got done for February too, thanks!  I had the chance to get an extra swim in last week and decided not to leave any final distance until Tuesday, the last night. I've seen Murphy's Law in action before. Congratulations to everyone in the challenges! Congrats even to those who don't make their goal, because just trying should have helped your swimming improve. |

Expert 640 Montreal | Subject: RE: January Side Challenge - Outstroke - Outlast - Outswim I like the avitar. It looks just fine. I have my last swim of the month Tuesday night. Talk about last minute. I can't believe I'm missing just 50 meters to complete the month. What a bonehead move on my part. Mike |

Buttercup 14334 | Subject: RE: January Side Challenge - Outstroke - Outlast - Outswim Cool avatar! I still have 4300 yards to swim. Going for a long swim tonight; not sure if I'll get it all in tonight, will finish tomorrow night if not. |

Expert 640 Montreal | Subject: RE: January Side Challenge - Outstroke - Outlast - Outswim Just looked at James' avitar and it is hard to make out the text. Compared to the pic of the guy on the bench feeling shame I don't know if its the resolution of the avitar or some -type of technical computer thingy. ( James did you participate in the original dec challange. ?? if so you jumped the gun its only Jan 30th Mike Edited by soloryder 2006-01-30 2:47 PM |

Master 2287 Calgary, Alberta | Subject: RE: January Side Challenge - Outstroke - Outlast - Outswim Shoot - hadn't seen it that small. Back to the design board... In my case I will complete my swim tomorrow night but I was also in the January Team challenge and I think one of my teammates may not complete her goal....so my Avatar might have to be made into a GIF - Success, Fail, Success, Fail,.... |

Master 1902 Berkeley, CA | Subject: RE: January Side Challenge - Outstroke - Outlast - Outswim I feel slightly insane--but I actually think I'm gonna make it... by like 50 yds!!! But my legs and arms are killing me!! It's my own fault though. I sorta didn't swim for the first 10 days of the month. Hmm. So I've been throwing in extra swims left and right! But here's the great thing!! It's always been my dream to be able to swim a 50 in under a minute consistently. I know, it's not much of a dream, but it seemed completely unreachable for me! This morning, I swam 4 150s with a 5 second rest between each one. Here were my times: 2:55, 3:00, 2:58, 2:58!!!!!! I owe it all to the absurd swim challenge. (o: !!! I'll be posting my final swim tomorrow. BTW, my hair is becoming brittle and lackluster... again, I owe it all to the swim challenge. Dana |

| Extreme Veteran 323 Kochi, Japan | Subject: RE: January Side Challenge - Outstroke - Outlast - Outswim Finished this month with a great swim to put me over my goal by 6000 yards. (I wasn`t sandbagging, my job and the surf cooperated with my swim schedule). Did a 1000 Meter Time Trial and set a PR (14:40 in my second ever try) by over 30 seconds from mid-December. Hopefully by the time I`M THE ONLY SWIMMER LEFT it will be under 13:00  Nice job to those of you who reached your goal. See you next month! Von |

Master 2287 Calgary, Alberta | Subject: RE: January Side Challenge - Outstroke - Outlast - Outswim Okay - you asked for it. Of all the people in the December and January Challenge I was hoping you would fail as I am so tired of seeing you in your speedo in your Avatar.... vonholt - 2006-01-31 11:20 AM I wish that a few of you would start talking a little trash instaead of all this lovey-dovey $h!t.

Expert 640 Montreal | Subject: RE: January Side Challenge - Outstroke - Outlast - Outswim What are you talking about. I still have to finish swimming. But for the record, when I do finish ( 50m to go, I think I could do that in the tub tonight after my kids are done with their bath) I will be looking at a goal of 24200m for Feb. We also need a new sigline for those who want to change thiers. I have paid my dues for the Dec swim challange, but will be proud to show my colours on the Jan Side Challange. karris - 2006-01-31 2:38 PM Okay, it's time to declare our goals for February!

Master 2287 Calgary, Alberta | Subject: RE: January Side Challenge - Outstroke - Outlast - Outswim I've got 1300 meters to go tonight but in my tri swim class the instructor is timing us over our distance. So 1500 meters for that alone. |

Expert 936 Westchester County NY | Subject: RE: January Side Challenge - Outstroke - Outlast - Outswim Goal was 14000, and I finished strong today, and ended out with 14350. I guess that means I'm in for 15785 yds. for February. |
