    Yes, While on a Business Day trip to Grande Praire, AB. I managed to get in about an hour of time at the new Eastlink Rec Center at the Big 50 m Pool. 100 meters per lap 16 laps Front Crawl = 1.6 km ~ 1.0 mile . So it was a good day after that.

    Today I managed to swim 2000m breast in 50:50. Longest distance ever swam consciously for me. I could have been a little bit faster, but two teenage girls thought it was a great idea to float with their inflatable boat in exactly that one line I was swimming in near the end.

    I've been out of the water for 14 days now, since finishing my half-mile open water race. My right ear has been giving me quite a bit of pain lately, but it's apparently not swimmer's ear (as antibiotic drops haven't helped). I'm going to the doctor today to get some more advice. (I've had a crown put in recently, and the nerve is sensitive; might need a root canal; I'm wondering if that's causing my ear pain too.) I'm going to abstain from swimming until I get this figured out. (Which really bums me out!)

    Yes, I did. Tried anyway as I have rather sore muscles from lifting heavy yesterday. Swam 1km breast kind of fast (30 second slower than best time), and a few different distances mostly with breast. Found out: trying to swim really, really fast for only 50 meters is seriously tiresome if you're not used to it and with doms.
