100 fr ez wu 4 x 50 fr fins on 1:00 (31-34) 5 x 50 fr fins on 4:00 (31, 30, 29, 28, 28) 50 kick Swimming portions were the easy part, the in-betweens got painful. My right side all the way down to my ankle felt much more than the left for some reason The news about such a great swimmer being struck by a craft quite upsetting. I pray he recovers fully.

1|21 1000 25 ez fr 25 dr 500 bk board fins 300 uw board fins The drill I used was a Tony Ervin demonstration on youtube. All it is is freestyle with UW recovery, what makes it important is maintaining rotation, breathing, and stroke with the extra drag. Helps one maintain hold of water without slippage. 1|23 LCM 1K as 50 fr/ 50 bk with board fins 15:41

Don’t really pay much attention to net distances or keep track of it anymore. Now I see why.
14m wide area (measured 14.1 via gps). Had markings 5’ from wall - little short, but did the job. Great for turn and breakouts. 30 x 28 fr on 1:00 • breathe once • 15’s for some of the fast ones 6 x 28 fr on 0:30 • breathe 3 times 8 x 28 br on 1:00 • 24 - 21’s
