First Official Swim Of Summer!
Friday, June 21, 2013
It wasn't much of a swim but it was a swim. The pool was damn too hot. Once in the pool I decided it was going to be easy and short. Mostly 25's it was.
Warm Up
200 Swim
200 Kick w/fins. 100 free / 100 fly on back (400)
Then 20x25's Free on 30 Pulling breathing every 3.

It was damn hot! I was beat red when done. I got out of the pool to get my drink and cool off. (500/900)
3 Rounds of 4x25's on 30 IM order. Took 30 seconds extra rest in between rounds. (300/1200)
It was getting really dark outside. Thunder clouds. No thunder but I decided to get out. As I was driving home the rain started and then the thunder. Got out just in time. 1,200 yards in 30 minutes.

Total 35.77 miles (=62,950 yards, =57,561 meters)
Hopefully over the weekend I'll break my yardage/mile record for the year. It ain't much these days but I find these small milestones are making me feel better about my swimming. It may not be fast and my technique has suffered but just trying to keep some what of a base. Then when I get serious again it won't be so horrible and that hopefully will be soon enough.
