Memorial Weekend comin' up

I was very pleasantly surprised to have 10 swimmers this morning.  It is usually slower when there is a holiday weekend.  We are definitely getting a great, fun group that is coming to Olympus for masters.  I am loving it!

Here is the workout from this morning (I apologize for any misspellings, I am not wearing my glasses and my eyesight is getting worse the older I get.)

Internet at last!

So, we finally have internet at our new house.  I was going to write up a few workouts, but I cannot remember very many.  So you will get today's and maybe Tom's from Tuesday, if I can remember it.  Unfortunately, I woke up late today.  I felt really bad for being late to practice this morning, so if you came, I am really sorry.  Thank you so much to Joel for saving my butt and getting out to coach in my stead.  It is amazing, Amelia only woke me once and I got a ton of sleep!  But I still woke up late...

Here is today's workout:

400 Warm up SKDS (swim/kick/drill/swim)

12x25 kick (descend 1-3)

8x50 stroke down/free back @1:15

Main Set (6 times through):
50 sprint stroke (85-90%) @1:00
25 recovery @ :30
100 sprint free (95-100%) @2:00
25 recovery @ :30

12x25 @:30 (:25)
    1-first 1/2 sprint
    2-all sprint

Lacking Internet

I don't currently have internet.  I will post a few workouts from the internet-less time in the next week or so, hopefully.  That is if Century Link ever gets the phonelines connected correctly.
