So, it's my birthday and I slept late and missed the morning practice. So I decided to swim on my own.
So this time I made it one set of 5x50 farther but this time that was due to time rather than ability. I probably could have made it all the way. For some reason, I was trying to slow down on the earlier sets but was still holding about 35. But I didn't feel nearly as trashed as I did before.
So what I managed
200 Free warmup
100 IM - easy
100 free - descending every 25.
5x50 on 1:05
5x50 on :55
5x50 on 1:00
5x50 on :50
5x50 on :55
Ran out of time :-( so I did an easy 100 free and got out.
One thing this workout did help out on was distance and timing on flips turns.
