I swam a mile!

I have never doe this before.  This is about 4 times longer than I have ever swam, and 4 times longer than my race.  Having a lane to yourself makes a huge difference. Basically after a few laps, I just zoned out and 45 laters I was done.  Yep, awfully slow.  Anyway, now that I can do the distance, I still have to work on speed, and open-water.
