Kim, Congrats! I know that 64 laps/one mile is a very long swim in less then an hour! I've done it, but barely.
Could I do it now, since I stopped swimming? I don't think so. But hopefully I'll be getting back into more swimming soon and get myself back into better shape. Great excercise, isn't it?

I decided that if I wanted to be healthy and fit at forty I needed to start immediately. I joined a gym and set myself goals. The first is to be reached next weekend. The first day I swam i managed 8 lengths of the pool, stopping after every one to catch my breath. On Saturday I will be swimming the Midmar Mile. For non-South Africans, this is a mile long swim across a dam. 1 mile is 64 of the swimming pool lengths I managed 8 of 9 months ago! 1 600 metres! And all in under an hour! To celebrate my attempt I plan to relase watery themed books over the next two weeks. Join me in celebrate the wonderfulness of approaching 40, of being able to be fit and healthy and the joy of reading.
