Hi from Staffordshire

[summerdays]

Welcome Mick

from a place halfway-ish between Uttoxeter & Cheadle.

I'm off to that sort of area next week to visit my husbands family, though they are near JCB.

I loved swimming but i do not get the time anymore to go, used to love knocking out 40 lengths or so but now i mainly commute and get the odd weekend ride family permitting .

Hi cyberknight, I use to attend the pool in Stafford at 6.30am and started swimming 40 x 25m lengths but progressed to 60 however as well as it being boring I didn't really feel any benefit and could swim lengths all day, it also gets a little frustrating weaving around the other swimmers, cycling on the other hand causes me to sweat ( do you sweat when swimming?) be out of breath, depending on the length and severity of any hills and generally that I have actually 'done something' if you know what I mean?

Hey from Derbyshire.

Good going on the weightloss, I'm in a similar boat right down to the swimming. I think swimming was great when I was heavier (and it still is great) but eventually it gets a little boring and if you're finding it boring you're less likely to push yourself or go in with any mindset of 'progression' rather than just swimming backwards and forwards.
