Group Swim

There wasn't practice this morning, but a group of us got together and swam at Fairmont at the usual 6am.  I hope that there are lanes available for lap swimming when the high school teams start practicing in the mornings.  It was a fun, basic workout.  I think I could have made the times on the 100's if I were in better shape.  I was lucky if I made the 1:15's.  On the first round I went way too fast on the 1:10 and paid for it the rest of the 100's.  

It was great swimming with Jamie again, this might be the last time I swim with her.  I hope she comes back and swims with me regularly.  I will miss her.

Here was the workout:

[8x]
75 IM @ 1:10
50 Free @ :50

7x100 
(all times are + or - base time: sample times are on base 1:20)
     +5          1:25
      -5          1:15
   +10          1:30
    -10          1:10
  base          1:20
     -5           1:15
   -10           1:10

200 easy

Repeat the 7x100

400 Cool Down

3,000 yards total

Don't forget to include a warm up.  I came a little late and missed it.  Also, I think right now I might do the 100's a little differently.  I struggled with the -10's.  I would probably either do them as -5's or change my base pace to 1:25.
