I have the dreaded Christmas Cold. Sounds like whooping cough when I go off, it's like everyone in town has it. So no swimming. you know how a snail leaves a Trail behind him, I have this personal hygiene thing where you shouldn't be leaving a trail behind you in the water, so no swimming until I get better. Go enjoy the next few days with your family and friends.1

20 laps, and I headed to the hot tub. I trail run twice a week, and today I ran with my sister because I'll be out of town on our regular run day. Boo hoo. Tired legs. I put my fins on and stuck it out, but realized I'm a grown up with free will, then called it. Blargh...3

Swim #2 in the long climb back to fitness after pretty much two months of losing my way in pool and in life, to the point of nearly giving up both. Hopefully 2018 will be better!

The IMs nearly killed me. Eight months ago I could swim a 400IM at that pace - onwards and upwards hopefully!

swimming is an essential part of my physical and mental health. I'd probably have to the some sort of prescription anxiety drug if i didn't swim.1 -

I met my goal and have swum every day since I last posted except for Christmas. I have swum 2000-2500m with two swims of 3200, including one today. However, I bought myself short fins for Christmas, and have been using them for 500-1000m, so it feels like I should factor that in when counting my total distance.3
