My Swimming Continues...

I swam this morning and I'm making progress.  I remember going back in April (2012) for the first time and only being able to swim 1-1/2 laps in the 25 yard pool.  This was definitely going to be a killer for me in the triathlon world.  Today, 5 months later, I swam 40 laps continual in 28 minutes.  I normally try to swim an average of 2 times a week.  I've been keeping my head down more and bringing my hands to my waist/hip in the hand 'rotation'.  I seem to swim better in the 85 degree pool then the 78 degree pool.  I'm not sure if it's cold/heat on the muscles or just a mental thing.  It was a good morning workout.
