Not that anyone cares....

But I had a great swim last night. Hit all my intervals with time to spare and felt like the goofy drills were paying off. I did a pyramid work out..

1x25
1x50
1x75
And on up to 200. You are supposed to come back down the other side but they kicked me out of the pool. So I just cooled down.

I am sure I will not feel this great again next time, so I had to mark the moment.

And since the other people in my life REALLY don't care I had to tell you guys.

DH was supportive, but glazed over at the eyes when I started talking about my interval times. LOL...poor guy.

Hey, I care

It's nice to see your times improving. Telling us about your progress is just fine with me

It must have rubbed off as i had a nice swim session with our group this morning. Thanks!

When is your next swim session & how long do you spend at the pool? Do you train with others?

->-)0 ^^^^

Hi CC,
And thanks. I am on my own at the pool. I have input from the coaches at the hs where I teach, and I was coached millions of years ago, so I do ok. I am currently swimming between 1500 and 1800 per session. It takes me between 30 and 45 mins if I do drills. Most of my events will be in the 800 to 1000 yard zone, so I will be fine. I just started back in the pool 8 weeks ago, and I am really enjoying it. It is so nonpoundy after all of the mt biking. It feels nice. My goal is to be able to race 1000 open water in under 18 mins by June. I should have no problem. I have not timed it yet, but I am probably there based on my interval times.

And an added bonus, all of my students that are on the swim team treat me like one of the gang now!

Fun stuff.

Good Job!

A great smooth workout feels wonderful and powerful. You were right to let us know.

I hear ya on the glaze over look - that is what just about everyone I know has

Keep up the good work! you are doing times I will only dream of

I care, in fact I am envious, yesterdays first 250 were hard... I did another 250 and was done.
