Fast Food Makes for Fast Swimming!

I am now training full time with the local USA-S team, Velocity Swimming, in Wenatchee, WA.
We are an IM Based team, which I prefer, and I believe this is the best way to train age groupers in preparation for their future careers.

    Back to the grindstone again, and it was tiring. After taking it fairly easy for the last half of the past week, plus the 2 day meet over the weekend, I was pretty well spent. No practice Monday, and a pretty easy swim yesterday, didn't really get me completely "ready" for go time today, but I made it.


    Warmup:

    400 Swim (25 Free EZ, 25 V-Sit Scull, 25 Breast EZ, 25 Back kick)

    8 x 25 V-Sit Scull @ 1:00
    (600/600)

    10 x 100 Kick w/ fins @ 1:25 did SDK on back - went 1:16-1:17s
    (1000/1600)

    Main Set:


    8 x 300 as:
    • 200 IM w/ last 50 Free FAST @ 3:15 Desc. 1-4, 5-8
    • 2 x 50 Free FAST @ 1:00
    • 1:00 rest after round #4
    Desc'd from 2:40-2:31s but couldn't really get moving. The 50s weren't too hot either, going :30/:31s, with a rare :29 here and there200 EZ
    (2600/4200)


    5 x 300 Free Pull @ 4:30 just cruise them, body roll, breathe @ 3
    went consistent 3:45s
    (1500/5700)

    6 x 50 Choice Stroke AFAP @ 1:30 (did all Fly)
    :30/:31/:31/:30/:30/:29
    I felt good here on these at the end of practice, and was surprised how fast I was able to go.
