I feel like Aquaman today!!

I've never thought that my swimming could get any faster--ever.  I mean, here's someone who basically learned how to lap swim in 2003.  Don't get me wrong--I've been able to stay afloat in a pool since I was five.  And I could even swim across a large pool without drowning since about ten.  But the first time I swam in a lap pool--and actually swam at least 400 yards without stopping--was in 2003.  So my goal in the pool for last six years has been primarily endurance; I need to be able to swim 4,224 yards without stopping--period!  Tracy has watched me in the pool for the past six years and has told me over and over that my form is pretty ridiculous--and that ridiculous form has been known to hold me to a very consistent 13 minute time for each 500 yards I swim.  Well, I finally changed one thing about my stroke: hand entry!  Instead of reaching out and trying to glide through the water (my hands would come straight up and act as a break), I'm now going "deep and steep" on each pull through the water.  The result: 11:30 for each 500 yards!!!  I swear, I feel like Aquaman!
