It's all starting to pay-off

[HillSlugger]

Today was my first test set, a 1000 m time trial in the pool. I finished in 17:13, a 1:43 pace. Not that fast for a "swimmer" but pretty darn good for someone who learned to swim in adulthood.

Awfully darn good! I can only aspire to swim that well some day! A friend recently told me that to become a strong swimmer I need to be putting in 2-3 hours of swimming a day. No, "strong swimmer" won't happen. "Adequate swimmer" will have to do. I'm not even there yet.

You're going to be great!
