great 60-length swim
Went to the Swartz Creek pool. After a six-length (three-lap) warmup, I wanted to swim nonstop. I was surprised I felt good enough to swim 60 lengths, tying my P.R. I wasn't sure if I miscount... read more

It was 9:30 a.m. (ish), my phone said it was 66, but it felt like the mid to high 70s already. I need to get in some warm-weather runs to cover the one variable I can't control at Bayshore - the weather.
