After yesterday's swim I quickly was out the door in my failed attempt to get my hands on a HP Touchpad. I figured for 99 bucks it was worth the hunt. But without landing one I was on to the gym for some weight training. This morning is was all about the swim. Crappy swim for me but it was all about the swim just the same.
Warm UP
I guess a 500. I wasn't counting.
3x100's Kick on 2 minutes. I used a fin on my right foot. My left foot big toe is still bothering me a bit so decided not to wear a fin. (300/800)
Main Set - descend the 2nd one of each set
2x200 on 3 minutes
2x150's on 2:15
2x100's on 1:30
I was able to descend a bit. My first 200 I did a 2:30 then a 2:22. Which is very slow. I had a fast swimmer next to me for motivation but I just didn't have anything to bring to the pool. By the time we got to the 2x100's my stroke was messy. I was slapping around and I could feel myself just falling apart. I really gotta work on my endurance. (900/1700)
We rested a short bit before doing 12x50's on 60 Fly/Back, Back/Breast and Breast/Free. The first 50 was a mess. The fly was horrible! (300/2,000) So it was a challenging workout even though it shouldn't have been. Then again the water was 90F! But at least I had a fast swimmer to push me more then I would have without them around.
