Having reached 500 miles, hopefully I can get my mind off of yardage and think more about stroke diversity, kicking, and speed. Having said that, we started today with a Hour of Power and I stayed another 45 minutes - so, I put in a lot of yardage. Still, I did add some diversity. Another thing I did, or didn't do, is no paddles today. I like them for strength and feel, but I want to wean them down, particularly in backstroke. Plus, I didn't want to stress my arm/shoulder any more.

Swam with Ray, Peter, Dave M. and Dave B. There was a light group today so we each had our own lane.
