Yes, a couple of months ago I suppose.

It's interesting to see how long it takes you as the only other person I've been measuring myself against is Pool Boy™ who is a 20-something year-old competing open water swimmer who takes six strokes to get from one end of the pool to the other where I take 18 .
It takes me about 1 hour 5 minutes to swim a mile, so I think I can be quite proud of that (being 52 years old, of which I spent 51 years as a couch potato ).
