Hi Folks - New to the forums and triathlons, been swimming for about 6 months now (Never swam or took any type of instruction growing up). During this time I've done some lessons with a local coach.
Wanted to see if anyone had any advice for swim motivation, as I find counting the number of tiles in the black line only holds my attention for about 500m after which I am looking for something to try to keep my mind busy doing something other than coming up with things I can do that involve leaving the pool.
Anything that can be done to make swimming more interesting or help improve focus? Anything that people can share that they particularly enjoy about swimming? At this point I'm coming up blank there and hoping to find something that might help improve my attitude towards swimming.
Thanks all!
