My kick wasn't great. It is the weakest part of my stroke and still needs a lot of work. I have this weird crossover thingy happening which I just can't seem to shake. To be honest, I have no recollection of what my feet and legs were doing (besides slipping off the touch pad) for the entire time of that race. Another thing to work on, now that you mention it.
I ask because there is a lot of strategy involved on when to really turn up the kick and how much to turn it up. I think a strong kick will help your back half quite a bit. A month of 4-8 all out 25s kicks 3x/week really helped me improve my kick quickly. Volume kicking never helped me much.
