Wednesday evening swim
A light turnout this evening. There were eight of us in four lanes, and three in the swim clinic in two lanes.
Emily and Rick jumped in the fastest lane, Rick circle swimming behind Emily. Jeremy and I jumped in the fasterer lane, me circle swimming behind Jeremy. FellowIMAZtobeBarbara jumped in the faster lane with beardedMike, splitting the lane. Kerstin and DontKnow in the fast lane. The fastest two and a half lanes (incl. fellowIMAZtobeBarbara) did:
Warm-up: 25 swim, 25 drill, 25 kick; 50 swim, 50 drill, 50 kick; 75 swim, 75 drill, 75 kick; 100 swim, 100 drill, 100 kick. I hate kicks, I have a sucky kick (and therefore the reason I need to do them ...).
The main set was: 400, 4 x 75 building to sprint; 300, 4 x 50 building to sprint; 200, 4 x 25 sprint; 100 then a 100 TT to finish.
The cool-down was 300 pull.
Wrap-up was 3 x 25 tarp-pull:)
My 100 TT after the main-set was 1:16. As I was without watch (there is the deck-top clock), Coach Andrea said she'd time me, when I finished, I expected her to be shouting my time, but she was over "chatting" to (er, coaching) someone else. A quick call over and she gave me the time, from which we deducted 7 seconds (5 didn't seem enough, 10 too many ...). So close enough. Next time I need to be self-sufficient ... but she offered ...
[Edit: Emily and Rick were both 1:13]
A decent hard workout, a good solid hour. My math makes it 2.75K.
