Perhaps there would be interest in a rotating blog--a different swimmer each week posting his or her workouts. This would provide some insight into what various individuals are doing across the country (or around the world for that matter).
Friday 3/3/06
Coaches: Simon and Bethany
Warmup: supposed to be 600, 200swim, 200kick, 200 pull
ended up doing 300 swim, 100kick, 50pull...then they said to stop
There were 5+ people per lane, and they took the 2 fastest lanes to the other side of the bulkhead, we just had 3 in my lane for the rest of the set, went 2nd
Main set:
8x100 @ 1:30 descending 1-4 and 5-8
300 hypoxic, breathing 3-5-7 by 50
6x200 @ 3:15, descending 1-3 and 4-6
300 hypoxic, breathing 3-5-7 by 50
8x100 @ 1:25 descending 1-4 and 5-8
200 warmdown
total: 4040 yards
Do you ever get a song in your head you can't get rid of? Just before I parked, I heard Green Day, "Wake me up when September ends," and had it the whole workout. Well, and that one Madonna song that uses the music from an old Abba song (something like Time goes by...so slowly) those two kept rotating through the whole set.
If you want to see a strange takeoff on that Madonna song, check out this link:

Went for a short (2-1/2 mile) run last night. Was really good...temp was 75 when I got home from work, and felt great to get out. There's a canal close to where I live with lighted paths on the sides.
