Saturday morning swimming is wonderful

I like swimming on Saturday mornings.  There are few people at the pool and they open later, so I don't have to get up as early.  Plus, the drive home is much nicer since I didn't have to compete with people who are on their way to work. 

Here is what I came up with for this morning:

Warm Up:
600

12x50 (straight through, no rest)

    1-flutter kick
    2-dolfin kick
    3-breast-swim

Main Set:
5x300 @4:30
get faster on each one
(these are my times:  4:12, 4:00, 3:52, 3:46, 3:47)

500 cool down

3,000 yards total

I tried getting my resting heart rate afterwards, but I came up with 100bpm and that seemed fast. I will have to practice that one.  I would be interested to see and compare my resting heart rate to when I am working hard.
