Setting three different alarms in the monring is really helping me get out of bed! Two was okay but three really gets me going!
400 Warm Up followed by a 300 (50 kick / 50 pull / 50 swim and repeat)(700)
Main Set:
6x300's on 4:10 Freestyle -
- first two - swim, descending the two. The first one I did a 3:47. The second one I did about a 3:45.
- second two - swim stopping every 100 and taking 10 seconds rest. I was holding 1:10's for these 100's so they 300's came in on 3:30 (minus my rest)
- last two - swim stopping every 50 taking 5 seconds rest. I did another 3:30 for the first one and a 3:27 for the last on. (1800/2500)
Now I misheard the interval so I sorta f'ed up the set. It wasn't on 4:10 it was to be on 4:30. Even though I was making the interval I was supose to have the extra rest to keep my stroke together as I got faster. Instead of my messy slap the water like crazy swimming style. At least in theory I was able to get faster in my 300's or in other workds sorta descend.
Afterwards I did an asy 50 then 2x100's easy pulling breathing every 3 then a 50 easy drill. (300/2800) Total workout was 2,800 yards. Tomorrow workout will be a taper or butterfly workout. Well not 'or' it'll be an easy workout concentrating on butterfly. On Thursday my workout will consist of me swimming a 600 for time to check in on my swimming. I have about three weeks to I swim the 1,000 and I'm slowly feeling confident to do that. But only time will tell.
