CONGRATULATIONS

You do indeed rock....good for you Jimbo... but you know what this means....it is only halfway through May and you have smashed through your goal, therefore next month you will have to at least DOUBLE your goal distance.

Good for you..I plan to make it through tonight....

Oh come on. Let me bask in the glory for a minute or two.

Yeah, I thought of that. Next month's goal will have to be somewhat higher than ..whatever I end up with this month.

But for now..I'm all that.

May 16th very light swimming 1500

Total distance 30,350 meters

% of goal 101

So since you and fin are teaming up, does that mean that Q and I are going to have to kick your butts as team 2? Or since I am the newbie, I have to go it alone? LOL

See...now it's not the butt kicking you mentioned that bothered me..it's the fact that you say 1500 is "light swimming" Turkey! (or maybe I should have called you a duck)

actually jimbo, I said VERY light swimming...LOL

Sorry, I did not mean anything smartass about it, I just did drills, kick and some light swimming, no intervals, no timed swims. That is what I meant.

Oh i know Jimbo, that is what this is about, Right? Friendly competition, but also about enouragement to set our goals and try to accomplish them. If there is razzin' and ribbing along the way, that makes it all the more fun.

as a side note, yesterday's workout had one of the longest main sets I have done in a long long time..it was: 2 x (6x200 meters on 3:00) so altogether the main set was 2400 meters . I had to change the way I swam each 200, just to stop the boredom from setting in..LOL.
