3,000 Yards Boring Swim.

It's a swim for garbage yardage.  I made it simple without intervals so I could just get a feeling for swimming again.  I've had about a month off from working out and this week I've ran just shy of 5 miles on Monday, did a body weight plus weighted vest mini-workout yesterday so this week is a jump start week.

400 Freestyle Swim.  It hurt!

400 Freestyle Kick

400 Freestyle Pulling with Paddles.

300 Freestyle Swim.

300 Freestyle Kick.  I felt like I did 400 yards.  Ugh!

Not too bad.  I'm sore still this morning.  Lap swim is limited today so who knows if I'll get in a swim.  I should use a recovery day!  WOD ROM?
