OK - can a very bad swimmer play this game? I've stood on the sidelines (or should I say the pool deck?) and watched the February Fishtwitch enviously - but would like to dip my toe in the water...
I'll finish February with about 30,000 yds - so should probably set a 40K target for March. Just don't ask me how many hours that'll take me!

ANYONE can play this game. that is the beauty of the challenge - it is yours, and only yours. seriously, do not look at one everyone else is doing. evaluate your 30K from feb and then make a goal for march. was the 30k easy to reach? will march allow you as much swimming, or are there bike/run blocks? just a few things to consider. i had a 50k challenge in january and made it 60k for feb...which i will complete. so, for me, i am considering making it 70k:)

There are four Wednesdays in March
That means four hours of swimming
at four k an hour
I guess that makes my goal
no more than 16k

I'm in. Feb was a terrible month for me from a swimming perspective as I A.) moved; B.) had a balky bit with some shoulder tendonitis; and C.) have had some ridiculous deals going on at work. That said, I probably won't be able to get into the pool until the weekend at the earliest, but put me down for 30K (which I hope to shatter but can't plan more than a couple days ahead with my current work situation - should all change when I go back to school in the fall, though).

Can I enter on behalf of my friend Pat (doing the 32 mile gulf swim at the end of March)? He is currently swimming 42k a week., including a 5 hr workout last week. Makes me feel like total slacker - even if I managed to 50k this month.

Sure, what the heck, sounds like fun. I figure there is a good chance I'll swim on all 22 weekdays during March, so put me down for 75000 (yards).
Thanks,
