Back in the pool for a bit this morning for a mixed workout. Recovering from two injuries I haven't swam since last Monday or lifted weights. I did run twice but that is it. I was hoping that I'd get in the water and it would be like I was all better and back to swimming. I felt sorta blah when I got up and hit snooze several times but managed to get myself out of bed. Got to the pool and felt pretty good if a bit sluggish in the speed. But then one of my injuries started to act up so I got out after an hour. Here is what I did swim:
400 Warmup
4x100's 50Drill/50Swim 1 of each stroke (400/800)
3x200's 1st Free on 2:40 / 2nd IM on 3:00 / 3rd Choice (I did Backstroke) (600/1400)
Three Rounds - 6x75's
1st one last 25 fast
2nd one last 50 fast
3rd & 4th all fast
5th one first 50 fast
6th one first 25 fast
1st Round Free on 1:00 / 2 Round IM (minus the free) on 1:15 / 3rd Choice on 1:15 (I did backstroke) (1350/2750)
Then a 50 easy (50/2800)
Then we had a 600 free building by 100. I did a 100 and felt some pain so got out. I started to feel pain in the butterfly part of the IM but managed to ignore it. But swimming a 600 in pain didn't sound like fun to me so I gave up. (100/2900)
This week I'm going to take another day off before weight lifting and hope that my injuries start to recover. Will run instead of lifting on my non-swim days till I feel better on my swim days. At least this is one way to get my runs in.
