This week, I'm getting in 3 swims to make up for the missed sessions last week.
We warmed up with 25 yards any stroke, returning with free style. Then moved to 3x300, with the goal of getting them a little faster each time. Our slow lane goal was to leave every 7 minutes. It took a while for me to get the hang of my watch but by the third set, I was keeping up with the group and didn't feel tired. I could have sprinted the last 25 yards. We closed the session by putting on fins and doing 25 yard sprints, racing another person. I liked that, can go fast when I'm competing with someone else.
It's fun to watch the calendar fill up with summaries. Can't wait to get more numbers in there!
I'm extremely sore and tight. I have a lot of neck, shoulder blade, and lower back pain. I'm a little worried about it - brings back memories from the 2011 China swim injury that annoyed me for 4-5 months. I took an Epsom salt bath last night. I'm trying to maintain good sitting posture and stay relaxed so I don't get a stiff neck. I hope tonight's swim is nice and graceful. I need to get a YOGA session in VERY VERY SOON!
