Facebook has that delightful feature where they remind you what you posted on this day in years past. Here's one of mine for today, from two years ago.
That's me. In a swim cap, googles, and a wet suit. In front of the "Open Water Swimming Permitted" sign at Lake Washington. My caption says "let the season begin! easy half mile in lake Washington"
Two years ago I was still wearing a wet suit.
Two years ago I was swimming mostly in Lake Washington.
Two years ago May 9th was my "season opener".
Two years ago I could swim half a mile.
Now I swim "skin" and haven't worn the wet suit in 18 months.
Now I swim mostly in Puget Sound.
Now I swim year round, so there is no season opener.
Now an "easy" swim is a mile, or more.
It is always fun to see progress. This is a great example of how far I've come!
