After not working out yesterday (I worked over 10 hrs), I wanted to put in a good workout in the pool this morning. I can feel myself feeling better in the water since I have upped my swim workouts per week. Here was the workout:
W/U - 300 swim / 3 X 100s kick no board - 600 meters
6 X 50s on :60, descend by kicking harder - 300 meters
6 X 100s on 1:40 - nice and easy, working turns - 600 meters
Main Set:
4 X 50s on :60 (1-moderate;2-increase kick;3-increase kick even more;4-less kick but rapid turnover. Follow that by a 100 easy.
Do this 4 times through. R1 on :60, R2 on :50, R3 on :45 and R4 on :40.
150 cool down.
Total for workout - 2750 meters.
The main set was really good for me. I was able to produce low 30s for the 50s with just a little kick involved. My final broken 200 added up to 2:13, which I was pleased with. :34, :33, :34, :32.
Starting next week, I will be coaching Monday morning workouts. The morning coach wanted a break from the 5:30am schedule. Knowing I would be the only one who can help, I offered to switch. It really doesn't effect me much. Now I will be coaching when I swam in the mornings, and swimming when I coached in the evenings. Plus I'm sure Mr. Bixler will be happy to have another workout he can swim with me :-)
In other news. Drew's parents arrive from Georgia this Saturday for a week. It will be a fun and busy week. Aside from house upgrades, we are going to go wine tasting on the 28th and possibly the Aquarium on the 27th. I'm going to take both those days off, which I hope will be relaxing.
