Saturday, September 9th Swim & Gym

Started off good. Swim workout was tough, I wasn't feeling tip top, but I gave it almost my all.

500 w/u - 500 yards
6 X 50s on 0:50, descend 1-3,4-6 = 300 yards
2 X 100 KRLS, 1st one free, 2nd one stroke = 200 yards
10 X 100s, odds IM, evens Free, ascend IMs, descend Free = 1000 yards
50 easy
50 10/10, 50 build, 125 strong, 4 Xs = 900 yards
6 X 25s, underwater, followed by 1 min of kick on the wall equivalent to = 600 yards
450 cool down
Total = 4000 yards

Good workout. IM's took some time to warm up, felt off, but I still kept it going. Free's got a little better. Went 1:20, 1:14, 1:08, 1:03, 0:58. Felt tired but did them hard. The 6 X25 underwater followed by kicking was fun and TOUGH. I chose to do the 25s backstroke underwater using dolphin kicking to help me get in the rhythm of doing that off of each wall for backstroke. Did a long cool down just to reach 4000 yards.

We will go to the gym tonight.

Gym was good. We did about 6 exercises then finished with about 200-250 sit-ups (different types). Dinner was at Pizza Place and I tortelli. So bad for me, but so good. Ugh. The food part of this challenge is going to be difficult.
