Well-rested

My running may be a bit fatigued right now, but with only one swim in the last two weeks (illness, cancellations, and holidays), my swimming muscles should have been ready to go. And without any numbers to back it up, I had a pretty good morning in the pool. I decided to focus 100% on finishing the stroke, since that seems to be my major flaw right now (ahead of what is, I'm sure, a long list of minor flaws). No flip turns, no "wide flat foot", nothing but snapping the end of the stroke. And it seemed to work. I was leading the lane all day, and moving away from the group (except for the non-free sections, because I really suck at those). I don't know what my times were like, but I felt fast. I think we have a 400m test on Friday, so that will be a better judge. At least I think my triceps and lats will be sore tomorrow.

Swim: w/u - 200yds each free, non-free, pull
4x300, 30" ("swim pretty", 25 scull/25 pull, w/gloves, "swim pretty")
2x(100 ez non-free, 30"
2x200 pull w/paddles, 30")
c/d - 50 back, 50 breast, 100 free
Total: 3000yds
