28 Dec 07 6:30am SCY with team got in late 300 w/u 4x75 IM on 1:20 200 kick 4x75 *** descend on 1:30 50 EZ 150 pull 4x75 Free on 1:10 200 kick 4x75 free descend on 1:15 50 EZ 150 Pull 4x50 choice on :50 100 w/d 2600y Then I returned to the pool so I could coach a workout for some 9yo swimmers from our team in prep for a meet tomorrow. After the session, I decided to do a quick sprint workout and play with my new monofin. 11:30am SCY omo 100 w/u 8x25 underwater SDK on 1:00 R 2:00 4x25 Sprint on 1:00 :15,:15,:14,:12 100 w/d 500y I love my new MF. I was VERY concerned that I would not even be able to get it on my feet and getting the 2nd foot in is......interesting. Sure it's a hoot to watch. Doing the shooters, I found myself getting some very positive feedback on both maintaining a solid streamline and initiating the kicks at my hips. I look forward to playing with this more and need to consult the Mistress of the Monofin for some MF centric workouts. Paul
