Thursday's Swim Report - Adolph Kiefer Turns 96 & Other Swim Bits

The Poached Swimmer Workout

Back in the pool after an almost 2 week break.  Work, work and other shit keep me outta the pool.  A few afternoons I wanted to swim but we had thunderstorms.  I know I'm not going to get much swimming in during July so gotta get in the pool when ever I can.

The pool water temp today was 88.5F!

8    1:24.7     100     1:25

And that was that.  2,000 yards in about 45 minutes.  Chatted it up a bit in between.  Hey I haven't seen these folks in weeks.

My Progress for Go The Distance 2014
Month    Total Distance
Jan    2.76 miles (=4,850 yards, =4,435 meters)
Feb    4.15 miles (=7,300 yards, =6,675 meters)
Mar    5.82 miles (=10,250 yards, =9,373 meters)
Apr    7.41 miles (=13,050 yards, =11,933 meters)
May    13.59 miles (=23,926 yards, =21,878 meters)
Jun    5.60 miles (=9,850 yards, =9,007 meters)
Total    39.33 miles (=69,226 yards, =63,301 meters)

Hopefully I can get another swim in or two this month.  I'd like to at least beat March 5.82.  Looking at my work schedule for July I can already see very little swimming.  Oh well I'll swim when I can just to keep a base going.  Any swim is better then no swim.
