On Friday, Nov. 10, I hit my 2017 goal of 500 miles. My post from then:
Goal for 2017 of 500 miles in the books this morning, with a swim that began in the soothing rain! Thankful for health and
dear friends who swam alongside me day after day all year, and of course
those wild geese flying overhead honking - my Dad sending his love and
cheers.
Regularly swim in this lane for dear friend Arnie Fong, who died this time last year after a short fight with pancreatic cancer. I promised to keep his lane warm, and do so daily.
Now, with seven weeks to go, I’ll push on and try for 550-560, if the tired shoulders and cramping calves don’t fail me first.
(Thanks, Paul, for the surprise video this week).

Here's to my Dad: Peter, Paul and Mary's "500 Miles"
