Swim 3/21
I felt pretty good in the pool, which might be due to all the sleep I got yesterday. ;) I swam 2100 yards: 10x200 and then 1x100. Total time was 52 minutes, counting rest after each 200. Actual swim time was about 45 minutes.
I counted strokes and I was taking 18-20 for each length. My time for 200 yards varied from 3:55 to 4:15. Yeah, it isn't that fast but I was super happy with this swim because I did half the IM distance in about 45 minutes (granted, that was subtracting out the rest periods). This tells me I'm on track for completing the IM swim before the cutoff. Plus, this was the most yards I've done.
Anyway, I hope to keep building on this. Maybe in a few weeks of this kind of yardage I'll be up for 5x400's.
