Nice one, Sushi. Yeah, not many have claimed it. I guess partly due to the need for a single 100m distance to be recorded, but also because it's actually not a slow pace.

I was pleased as did 1:49:2
Can't seem to find another time badge to aim for.

That's shifting, Sushi.

I can never work out what's next with the badges. I don't think there's a way to filter them by category (run, swim, bike, games, blogs etc) so I've no idea if there's anything else to aim for.

I didn't even know about the Eric badge until you mentioned it the other day.

When you go on the badges page there's tabs at the top. One is for next targets. I can't see a swim time one, just tge distance one.

I wish there was a filter as I'd hide all the bike and chess ones. Never gonna happen, no matter how much I like a badge. Bikes are the devil's work and chess makes my brain ache

Good work Sushi! (+1 for a badge filter too, will happily vote for it if you do a feature request).

Inspired by the recent mention of the Eric the Eel badge I tried a 100m TT at the end of my set last night to see how far off 1.52 I was... expecting maybe 2.03 or thereabouts so it was a very happy surprise to see 1.51 on my Garmin! I was pretty tired by then so will go for it properly as a separate swim on my next pool visit.

I wonder if I could do it in my 10m pool. Bit of a cheat really.

Just been on holiday. 11m pool. Extracted about 1600m from it. Longest sessions 42 lengths (460m). Water temperature 22°C. Just as well my push-off is rubbish ;-)

(Garmin only goes down to 14m pool length. Weirdly, it recorded lengths swum much more accurately than normal - spot on for the final session.)
