hmmm... I am realizing I don't know very much about swimming from this thread. my pool time could be quite interesting. I think I am a left breather but it's been so long since I've done any pool training I can't be sure. I definitely will be trying light's kickboard drill. I am hoping to pick up a DVD or two on technique also.

my sis and I went for a run today, on some very hilly terrain near her house. Got my HR well above my usual. I enjoy being able to join her on her runs, instead of waiting for her to come back! She did run ahead of me most of the time, but it was still a lot of fun.
