Swimming Challenge

I'd love to do this, I need to look into swimming lessons and see if I can fit anything into my schedule.

If you're going to take lessons please, if you have it, drop the ca**** IS pricey. What I mean by this is: it's cheaper to take group lessons...BUT...you don't get the attention you will need to make those improvements. Especially if you're proficient...they better you get, the more pickier things need to be in order to make gains. I'm saying this b/c I help coach swim for my tri club. I'm in charge of the more beginner folk, which is find, because I think that's where my strength is. Anyhoo-with that said...I can only give so much attention to one person at a time...and for x amount of minutes as not to leave anyone out. Do your research before you sign up with someone. I'm a big fan of word-of-mouth. Ask around to the local triathletes...
