With today being sprint day, I thought I’d mix it up a bit. Actually, I thinking I’m going to do a lactic workout once a month. Honestly, I don’t know what wild hare convinced me to do a 200 back at race pace. It was painful and highlighted how, if I’m ever going to do that again, I need to start swimming longer lengths backstroke. My original thought was to also swim a 200 free race pace. Hahaha! After the 200 back, I nixed that quickly. Between each easy and the next sprint, I gave myself a couple of minutes. The rest is necessary if you’re going to do a true lactic workout.
So, go forth, and have fun.
