In Case You Were Wondering About My Fitness Goals . . .

In June, I set a goal to swim every week, averaging 11 laps (550 yards) each time.  I did it.  So, in June, I:

Biked 82 miles
Swam 1.25 miles

(As it turned out, the triathlon in July that I was looking at was on a Sunday, so I didn't sign up.  And I didn't set any running goals.)

In July, I decided that rather than increasing my swimming distance, I would improve my speed.  I started doing my first four laps with no stopping, and then did 7 more, with breaks.  At the end of the month, I could do 4 laps in 6 minutes flat, and could do all 11 in 18 minutes 14 seconds.  That was improved from roughly averaging 2 minutes per lap previously.

The second half of July was horrible biking weather: heat, strong winds, and lots of sporadic thunderstorms that lasted just long enough to drench you, but not long enough to help any crops.  So, in July, I:

Biked 53.6 miles
Swam 1.56 miles

Then, the pool closed for 2 weeks.  Then, classes started.  I didn't make it to the pool at all in August.  I've still been biking, but I stopped counting miles.

Anyway, there's my follow through.
