I asked my coach to come in early this morning so I could get at least 40 minutes of swimming in before heading upto the convention center. I had trouble sleeping last night too(too much going on right now) so could have gone in really early if the pool was open. Unfortunately I am the only idiot awake at 3am. I did get to see the first three sets of semi final of the Australian open between Murray and Federer. I felt tired today and congested and could not tell if it was purely a lack of sleep.
Warmup
400 free
6x50 drill
Main set
8x200 on 2.30, negative split and descend 1-4 and 5-8
2x75 on 1.15 fast/easy/fast, 1x50 fast break out of turn on 1 minute, 1x50 fast on 1 minute, 100 fast on 1.15, 100 easy
Warm down
200 easy
Total 2900
I found it hard descending today, I struggled getting into a rhythm across the 200s. I went 2.15(1.10, 1.05), 2.13(1.09, 1.04), 2.13(1.08, 1.05), 2.10(1.07, 1.03), 2.13(1.09, 1.04), 2.13(1.09, 1.04), 2.11(1.07, 1.04), 2.10(1.06, 1.04), 2.10(1.06, 1.04). The last one would have been a few seconds quicker but ran into traffic at 75 and again at 125 turns.
