well today I did 26 lengths in 50 mins and 16 of them was without stopping.:thumbup: (but my arms do ache a bit). as was all done on back stroke.

That's really good Ann - I'm very pleased for you. Swimming was never my sport of choice (cycling is), but I'm really glad that you can see the progress you're making. Keep it up xx

I go swimming 6 days a week and it certainly tones your body. The Country club is really lovely and being a pensioner and going off peak it only costs me £5 per week for all the facilities. Plus I have made lots of friends going there and can now swim 10 lengths but I need to up my speed.

Hey, you're entitled to bragg BgB! Well done you.

I am at a stage now when I feel DESPERATE to start taking some exercise but my energy levels won't allow. Have only just come off the liquid diet. My head says GOGOGO but my body's still saying SLOWSLOWSLOW!! LOL.
