I've been working out with the age group/high school team in the mornings. I'm off this week so I didn't have to leave practice early to go to work. Went 5000 yards--the last time I did that Jimmy Carter was in the White House. Overall felt pretty good. Swam some fly, went 6:05 for a 500 free at the end of a distance set. Disclaimer--it took me two years to work up to this.

So this is an "SRT" eh?........I like the acronyms flying around here these days.......Congrats Craig on the 5000 yard practice (and the strong finish with the nice 500 time!)......I am also trying to slowly work my way up to somewhere around 5000 yards a practice.....I've done a couple of 4300 - 4500 yard practices recently....but usually I range from 3300 to 4000 because of time constraints.....It would be nice if I could also workout with a local age group team here in town (like maybe once or twice a week).....I've thought about traveling to Memphis (about 80 miles one way).....once a week to work out with an age group team there (probably a saturday morning practice)...that would also give me a chance to workout in a 50 meter pool once a week.
Keep up the good work Craig!
