Final thoughts…i hope this little challenge motivated you to break through some limits. In my case, even my meager total of 37K was a monthly high for the year and at my masters workout this morning, I was swimming stronger than I have in a long time. No doubt thanks to the extra yardage in November.

I’m at 3200 for December. :slight_smile:

8,500 through 11/8, yikes!

I’m up to 26,000 as of today…the 9th, I think.

I’m at 5700 yds so far, waiting for my shoulder to feel better.

I’ve gotten in 310 minutes of water running this month, though :stuck_out_tongue:

I feel like such an intermediary. One of my coached athletes wants me to post here about his extraordinary swim month because he’s a regular lurker (damn you Nathan… oops sorry for mentioning your name). As of this morning he is at 55,000 meters - way to go Nath… uhh, I mean athlete! I’ll keep posting here as long as he keeps bugging me!

I’m only at 8000. It has been hell at work and I haven’t been able to make it to masters. I really need to step things up. Tonight I’m going to the lane swim to get back into the swing of things (yuck).

see new update at the top of the thread. :slight_smile:

8

Only done 11.5km.

By the way, I think my big swim month will be December 14th - January 4th…100k planned for that span. Oh the holidays are good.

Can i play too? Just for fun…

14,100 meters / 15,420 yards @ Nov 9th.

Two Olys within a fortnight this month mean i won’t get near 100k tho :frowning:

10

you’re in…see update, I’ll give you credit for the yards number to be nice. :slight_smile:

11

tell Nathan to post it himself!

12

Just call me slack ass.

I’ll post what I have tomorrow. Sadly, not much this week. Life got in the way.

Hi, 1st-time poster here. Solymosi’s my coach, I was too shy to post but he’s rather adept at forcing people out of their shell. Been a lurker for some time, awesome ideas and info floating around this place. Thought I may as well do this forum thing, this swim challenge sounds fun and interesting.

I’m at 10K as of tonight. I guess I need to get moving on this, but I just got home from IMF…i’ve got a few two a days planned in the next weeks and I know after thanksgiving I’ll be at the pool a lot working off all the smoked turkey and vino!

15

Welcome!

16

Count me in for the Month, but 100k!!! No way. I’m at 15,250 through today. Doing a Swim Focus till the end of the year. Injured the Achilles, so no running yet. Good timing as the weather here has been rather unforgiving, unless you are a Duck!

Hey Nath… I mean Baldric. You’re finally on here and now you can punish the rest of the crew with your super swim month. Next you’ll have to post pics of yourself racing, for all the ladies. By the way he is single! Sorry Nate.

18

oh yes, pictures!

19

welcome aboard!
