Warmup:

500 Free

Kick Set: All Flutter Kick w/ board
8 x 50 @ 1:00
6 x 50 @ :55
4 x 50 @ :50
2 x 50 @ :45
I was able to make all of them this time. Came in at :44 on #19, and made the turn and kept going. Managed to make it in back at :45 on #20, so that was good.
(1000/1500)

4 x 100 Free Pull @ 1:30 (1:08s)
3 x 100 Free Pull @ 1:25 (1:08s)
2 x 100 Free Pull @ 1:20 (1:09s)

1 x 100 Free Pull @ 1:10 (1:08)
1 x 100 Free Pull @ 1:05 (1:06)
(1200/2700)
That was rough at the end. Added those last two 100s just to see what I could do, and they were a bit on the tough side.

12 x 25 Odds EZ Free @ :30, Evens Fast Fly @ :40
(300/3000)

200 EZ

------------------------
3200 Yards

GTD Update:
11.98 miles (= 21,083 yards, = 19,278 meters) to next milestone (500 miles milestone).
Looks like I may still get that suit after all. Not that we swim for prizes, but I'll take what I can get.

    haha, anything that helps get you to the pool can't be bad for you
    I still have 35 miles to go, so you're way ahead of me.
    One of my normal lanemates was at workout this morning, and we chatted about it. She's never done GTD before and was asking me what kinds of suits...I told her for guys it is a brief or jammer, and you can select size/color. Last I looked, she was around 480, so she'll be there in 2 weeks.
    One reason I swam today was to get closer to a guy I normally swim with who is away for the weekend and can't swim. He's really into GTD and it will annoy him if I get closer

    I love the 500 mile suit, but there's no way I'm going to make it this year. Congrats as you'll easily make that.

    With 12 miles to go, I should make it...but it really depends on my days off from work and how I can fit in a little pool time. It would be easier if I had a training facility in my backyard.
