Mixed in 6 20m Lengths of fly this morning. Felt very good. What is surprising is that after a length of fly, crawl seems soooo much easier. Aiming for 8 tomorrow.0

I think I HAVE to have miscounted, this was far and away my fastest time ever (By like five minutes per mile!), and my swim didn't feel that brilliant this morning.
(Ah, no. Didn't miscount... got the yards to meters conversion wrong... All better!)0 -

1 km 30/35 ish. Lost track of time when they did a simulated swimmer down test for the new Life Guards so we all had to get out of the pool. It has to be done at some time and during the Lane swim it is mainly adults who " usually " are a little more understanding.
Finally able to reply to forums and posts in the groups after all the software changes to MFP.0 -
Did 1.5km of back and breast stroke this morning. Was not able to do any crawl or fly as when I lifted my right arm out of the water I got an annoying shooting pain in my bicep. Think that was linked to the weird variations on push ups that we were doing in kung fu the other night. Hope its OK by my next swim on Saturday.0

Wow! Best to rest that arm, so you can live to fight another day!Did 1.5km of back and breast stroke this morning. Was not able to do any crawl or fly as when I lifted my right arm out of the water I got an annoying shooting pain in my bicep.

Hope your arm feels better. But I think breaststroke is unfairly maligned, anyway. Matthew Webb crossed the Channel using it!0 -

Been taking a peek at the Swimming Masters world championship times for 2010 (even for the 85-89 age group)! *gulp*
Well at least I picked the right sport if 99 year olds can still post such respectable times!0 -

That's amazing and inspiring! I hope I can (live to) and stay active in my 80's.0 -

If you call what I do swimming...
Still doing lots of practice, trying to find a breathing rhythm, and get my technique right. I still turn my head too far, sometimes turning my torso, although not as much as before. It's a slow process for me, but I want to be able to do this if I want or need to later in life. And I don't want to be struggling like this at that time. I'm learning now what I should have learned as a kid. 0 -
