Long course isn’t getting any better. I know I must be patient, but . . . it’s hard. LOL Still, I showed up and got in, which is better than staying home. (grin) As you can tell by the intervals, I wasn’t swimming that fast. Matter of fact, the...

I woke up late on Saturday. Literally, 15 minutes before I was supposed to swim. It takes 15 minutes to get there. I was out the door in less than 10. But I hate being late. Anyway, I still managed a decent swim. Not as many yards as I had hoped, but it was something....

I wanted to combine stroke technique with speed endurance today. Yesterday was about distance. Today, I worked on speed, but not necessarily sprint. I wanted to maintain the 100s around 1:21-1:22 without sprinting. So hard, but working the speed more through technique...
