Slow progress

Did 18 laps in the pool last night. Took a long time. I stuck with it and got there. Almost to 20 laps. Then I start working on doing laps with fewer and shorter breaks between them. Progress is slow, but measurable. Dev was incredibly encouraging about it; she pointed out that a year ago I could not have got 18 laps no matter how long I stayed at the pool and how long I rested on each pool length. Yet another reason I keep her around - my own little cheer leading squad. [grin]

I still need to get in the pool with you, dude. I know you have tonnes of endurance, you must need to work on your breathing or something. And remember, the key to learning efficient movement and O2 usage in the water is:... Underwaters!
