    Always a good feeling when you first hit 1km straight, nice one! Next stop 3.8km, then 10km, then....;)

    I totally know what you mean!

    Up until I could swim about 200m, swimming felt like drowning!

    Once I got passed that it was like, hey I can keep going!

    My endurance is much better now although I got my second one-to-one lesson this week and I feel like I cant swim again!
