How far have you swum this year?

[longers]

Inspired by ASC1951s impressive mileage in the pool - how far have you swum this year?

I've been to the baths twice with my niece, but widths don't count, so nothing for me.

 

[Night Train]

I can't believe I haven't been swimming at all so none here either.

 

[BigonaBianchi]

i had two baths this year

 

[ianrauk]

none... and I love swimming

Don't know the exact number but try to swim 6 miles a week (3 sessions, 2 sets on 1.5 miles and 1 3 miler) sometimes more, often less though! Still a major ambition to swim the Chanel. Probally never will though, was bad enough after a 10 miler.

about 10 lengths every day of the pool on holiday is about it for me.

I haven't swam at all this year. Our nearest pool the Barbican was knocked down years ago. The others are too far to go just for a swim. Oh well maybe they will build something closer soon.

I was born with gills like Kevin Costner in waterworld so i swim most days not to take for granted the gifts god gave me.

 

[Headgardener]

I can't swim!

Me neither.

 

[fossyant]

Very little, even though I've been a few times, it's with the kids and at a slow speed - clunk, click every stroke...goes my shoulder....bit off putting.

conservative estimate 50k

 

[Rhythm Thief]

No distance at all. I find pool swimming really, really dull.

 

[swee'pea99]

100 miles, give or take.

 

[Sam Kennedy]

Exactly 0, I hate swimming, I hate water, but I do like drinking water.

I find it to be a good time to clear my head, the 3 mile swim I do every Friday takes me around 90 minutes when not training, so plenty of time to think things over. But completly agree, swimming in the sea or lakes is much better!
