Shorter swim but quality sprinting.

Today Shawn wrote a workout geared towards quality rather than quantity.  We focused on two main parts in the main set.  They were some 25's and 50's fast.  As long as we did those ones right, we accomplished the goal of the workout.

Here is the workout:

300 Warm Up

8x100 25 kick/50 swim/25 kick @1:50

4x
[50 @75% on 1:00

200 Cool Down

2,200 yards total


This Saturday, I am going with a couple of friends to swim at Deer Creek Reservoir.  We are both kind of nervous about open water swimming.  So this will help us get comfortable with it.  Thankfully, Mandy is coming to help us train.  She is quite the open water expert.
