Participate in the Kansas City Corporate Challenge

I just signed up tonight. I am going to add some specific swimming goals… so be on the look out! :-)

200 Freestyle 4:35.94
50 Freestyle 0:54.85
50 Breast-stroke 0:58.50
50 Backstroke 0:48.88 (last year was 0:48.28…so close!)

Not outstanding but not bad! My goal for next year is two fold. I will compete in the tri…which was cancelled this year due to rain…and I will beat my times from this year. I also have some sub-goals for swimming. The first being to learn how to do the butterfly and the second being to become comfortable with flip turns so I can take more time off qanf the third is to build a lot more endurance for that 200 free…it kicked my butt! I do have to keep reminding myself that I did this 13 weeks pregnant and I wasn’t supposed to go all out!

Ultimately, someday, I want to place in the top 3 for my age group!

I swam in the KCCC. My times were not stellar…trying to follow the drs. orders and not push myself too hard. I will post the details later, but I did want to give a quick update on this goal!

and I had an absolute blast! I’ve always beena competitive person…but never felt I had the althletic ability to compete.

I swam almost all of the events (I can’t seem to do a full lap of the butterfly!) last year with the goal of just finishing…and not finishing last! Surprisingly enough I managed to finish middle of the pack with everything! I was VERY proud of myself.

My goal for this year is to do it again and improve upon my times from last year in all swimming events and to also add the individual triathlon.
