This time last year I was getting laughed at by the lifeguards at my apartment building's pool because I couldn't swim across it without almost drowning. Last night I swam for 45 minutes straight in the same pool and the lifeguard said (in his funny accent) "You good swimmer. Strong shoulders". I've come a long way.
Do you have any posts about how you learned to swim? I'm fascinated with how far you have come in such a short period of time!
ReplyDeleteWhat Liz said -- it's amazing how far you've come in the water!
ReplyDelete(also, the lifeguard sounds like a character)
That is SO impressive! I also want to know how you did it!
ReplyDeleteI'm so impressed that you just learned to swim last summer and are now racing in open water! You should definitely share that story.
ReplyDeleteAnd imagine where you will be in another year! (future IronWoman!)
ReplyDeleteAwesome!!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat job for coming so far with your swimming so fast. Hopefully I can have the same story with mine since I just started in Jan.
ReplyDeleteI hope to some day hear that, even if it is the day that I die... I'm a terrible swimmer, but I can dream :) Congrats on coming so far!
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome - congrats on all the progress you've made in the past year!
ReplyDeleteI love it! I am in the same boat! Not that I am a great swimmer now, still far from it, but I at least am no longer at the point of drowning!;)
