Trying That Swim Thing Again and Other Random Acts of Fitness

Everything hurts right now.  I have muscle aches in so many places some of which I didn't know I had muscles.  Oh and the cramps!  I can't walk.  My first swim team based practice is years almost killed me.  I know it wasn't much but now over three hours later I'm still sore.

THE SWIM WORKOUT:

SKPS 400 + 50 (450)
250 Pull Free (700)
6x 100’s 75 Free / 25 Stroke (1300)
Kick 50 Free then 100 IM (1450)
4x 100’s IM and Easy Free (1850)
Sprints off Block 1x50 and 3x25’s (1975)

I’m dead. I’m sore. I was cramping up. I can’t walk cuz both calf muscles are cramping. I’m so out of swim shape.  I think that was the workout.  I didn't use my watch or anything.  The other day I was wondering to myself how long before I can do weights and then go to swim on the same day and as of now it'll be NEVER.  HELL NO.  It was great and I can't wait to go again.  Everyone was super nice.  The pool temp was 80F  The drive wasn't bad less then 50 minutes so I have no excuse not to go.  

Now I know I just can't go once a week so I'll have to do at least 2 other workouts by myself.  At least to the Rowdy Gaines Swim Meet.  Then I may have to go at 7am when the pool's open for lap swimming and do my best to be at work by 8am.  

One more thing is that I already changed my swim affiliation from Unattached to SwimOut.  So guess I'm really doing something again...
