Taz's diary - Need to do this!

[Taz]

Wow thats quite a calendar you got there Jim! On the 11th me and Mr Taz are going up to Yorkshire for a couple of days to visit friends

 

[Gemstone]

Jim - you party animal you!

Taz - I'm so pleased you are doing well with the swimming. You will get there x

 

[Jim]

Morning Taz, yes I do like to party.

 

[Taz]

Morning all! Beat my time again today, 1hr 45mins, so I decided to stay on and do another 30 lengths. I decided to try something different as I don't really have the stamina for it. I do a couple of lengths then have to stop to get my breath back so I decided to try something Nomad had mentioned on the Swimming Forum, to do one length of back stroke then the next front crawl. Although the back stroke is slower it cuts down the breaks so I can do 10 lengths without stopping so it's actually a little quicker. It only works in quiet lanes though!

 

[Jim]

That's good taz, and yes a change of stroke does help, I remember that from way back

 

[Taz]

I am hoping this way I can improve my time even more!

 

[Jim]

And it's more exercise using different muscle groups Taz

Hi Taz, it's nice to know I have good ideas occasionally!!

Well done on the swimming. Now it is you putting me to shame!! We will get there and like you, I am going to be spending a lot of time in the pool the next couple of weeks. We can spur each other on.

Have you much planned for your week off or just chilling?

 

[Tazzi]

You are still miles ahead of me Nomad! And yes that was a good idea. Not seen you on the swimming forum lately, I'm getting lonely on there talking to myself!

[Gemstone]

Is it still really quiet then Taz?

 

[Taz]

Well done Taz and Nomad - your swimming is awesome x

Thanks Gem, we are against the clock now!

 

[Taz]

Is it still really quiet then Taz?

Yes, there have been a few new members but it's still mostly held up by me and Nomad!

 

[Gemstone]

Thanks Gem, we are against the clock now!

Don't you just know the clock doesn't stand a chance

 

[Taz]

We can hope Gem

Morning all, up early again! I was actually awake before my first alarm this morning which is good cus I have woken naturally which means I am more ready to go. I got a new swim suit yesterday, made by Shock Absorber (the ladies will know what that means, sorry Jim!) so I will be wearing that one today. I have porridge in the pan ready to go on when I get back too so I am all set! See you all later

 

[Gemstone]

Get you Taz all up and ready - hope all shock absorbed nicely x
