Well SCY Nat are almost here and Ive been training hard. the last 3 months I've been in the pool 3 days a week at 3500 yards, and on my "off" days from swimming I've been lifting weights, running 3 miles @ 8min a mile, and when Im done with that I do a warm-up, sprints, and a cool down. I'm feeling a little broken down and cant sprint to save my life, but my conditioning is really good. and I think there is a flaw with my kick. I swam the first leg of the 200yd free relay and went 25.1......2 hours later I swam the 50 free, but I only went out at about 80% and really didnt kick, ended up going 25.2. and i felt that I could have held that pace forever...just cant accelerate? Now I was under 24.0 last year and I was not in this "good" of shape. 2 weeks before National I plan on dropping the weights and running. I need some opinions here....have I done it right?
