Any Swimmers Out There?
16 Answers
Seeing as its too painful to run at the min with the tendonitis etc, ive decided to try swimming. Havent done any properly for ages but I did 25 lengths of breaststroke, which I thoroughly enjoyed.I'm asuming that if I do this 3/4 times a week then i should start to see any benefits fairly soon ie healthwise or even just toning up a little bit?

the only problem with our pool is getting the timing right for when its quiet!
We have three lanes (slow, medium and fast) not everybody swims at the same speed and if people were a bit more courteous, If someone is faster than me then i always let them pass, or if someone lets me pass then i make sure i say thank you! (moan over)
