Tuesday Swim - Feb 14

Baby's gotta spit the soother sometime....

So I went to the pool for the regular workout, still feeling kinda bummed out from the bad lunchtime run.  My intention was to see how it felt, and if it was not good, then just do a bunch of breaststroke to loosen up the legs, and sit in the hot tub.

Warmup
100m Pull
50m Kick
100m Pull
50m Kick - note, the kick was done on back, no fins

B/U
4x7m rotate(free, back, breast)

main
100m back fast/slow
100m breast fast/slow
100m free fast/slow

we were supposed to do that twice, but I was running out of time

400m endurance test.  it was supposed to be as follows
50m hard
100m easy
50m hard
50m easy
100m easy
50m hard as you can.

didnt quite work out that way, I took slight breaks each 50m, and did it in 10:11.  Now, this is way slower than the previous times, coming in at 7:20ish, but here is the key important difference.  I did this workout WITHOUT fins, and the previous times were with fins.  So way slower, but without aids.

Nice.

200m as cooldown, and then 20min in the hottub.  great workout

And the pool swim on May 9 is looking even better.
