Swimming Longer

I love workouts where I achieve something that is a new milestone. Today I swam, 50 laps - 1250 yards straight.... and I did it in 24:49, which is under my benchmark of 2:00/100yds.

I haven't seen much progess in getting faster over short distances but I have been able to maintain that 2:00/100yd pace for longer and longer. Energy wise I felt fine at the end. The only thing that bothered me was my a back and neck muscles from repetitively turning to breathe 14 times per lap for 50 laps. This too is getting better. The first time I swam 1000 yds, it hurt much worse at 800 yds then it did today at 1250yds.
