Ellen's Very Southern Voice<p>Did a 22 minute 1/2 mile today in the pool. My goal was to get the 1/2 mile to 23 minutes, so that's good. I know I'll slow down as the mile goes on, and I want to get under a 50 minute mile (45 minutes, if I'm honest about my dream), so this gives me room to do that. </p><p>Not swimming faster so much as spending no time breathing at the end of the pool. </p><p><a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/Swim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Swim</span></a> <a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/Swimming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Swimming</span></a> <a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/Swimmer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Swimmer</span></a></p>

Ellen's Very Southern Voice<p>Having gotten back up to a mile, I'm now working on time. Not swimming faster, just not stopping at all on the wall. Today, I did 850 yds in 24 minutes. My goal is to do that in 23 minutes, so I can reach my ultimate goal of making the mile in 48 minutes. </p><p>I've never focused on time before, just distance. So only as I was researching a "good" time for a mile did I learn "swimming a mile" means 1650 yds. I've been doing a regular 1760 yd mile. What do y'all do?</p><p><a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/swimming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>swimming</span></a> <a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/Swim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Swim</span></a> <a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/Pool" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pool</span></a></p>
