I have to be stupid to say it out loud before my first swim today
but i really need a focus and everything apart from family and one very unwell friend has been dropped from my life for a while now
I’ve lost 21 lbs so far… quit added sugars… and have a goal to swim run and bike
the supersprint distance is first 300m swim, 7.5k bike 2.5k run
going to do that in April
anyone want to cyber join me?
first swim was an easy swim - 4 / 5 x 25 freestyle and about 15 x 25 breast stroke
not punishing myself because I sprained my ankle falling into a hole hidden by a puddle in wellies in August
it’s a bit of a bucket list thing this so i am kind of in a hurry kind of not
I can’t swim beyond doggy paddling, never really learned. I had a near-drowning experience when I was 7 years old, and just mostly avoided the water after that. Good luck with the triathlon though! 
Sounds like a difficult thing to recover from!
Thanks - i’m planning a few - getting to a higher distance in autumn and autumn 2019
no idea how long it will go on after that - if i don’t enjoy it i won’t keep it up
i haven’t done much swimming in my life and getting to the pool or sea or river is impossible… for me to keep up but when i swam and ran and cycled for a few weeks… the running was SO much more enjoyable and felt completely different.
intention is not to become a maniac
