Swimming Tuesday

Today was another masters' swimming workout.

500 yd warm-up, focusing on stroke length. Then, 20x25 yd: 5 x (25 kick on side, 25 free, 25 catch-up drill, 25 free). Then a good hard set: 100 easy, 25 fast 75 easy, 50 fast 50 easy, 75 fast 25 easy, 100 fast. By the end I was TIRED and that last 100 fast was only in 1:50. Not very fast! Finally, 12x25 pull, working on stroke length. I took 16-17 strokes for most of the 25s; this is a big improvement for me as I started out doing probably 24 strokes per 25 yd.

The lane was still crowded today with 6; but 2 left early and 4 was just fine. The shower was actually hot today to the end :).
