Swimming Off the Wall
It was a Thriller of a workout today if you like mega distance, but if not, it was Bad. And when you look at the workout you'll understand why we didn't spend a lot of time on the wall. And who knew our coach was a conspiracy theorist? Either that or he is in denial, as he thinks MJ is still alive. Here is the workout:
300 swim
3 x (4x50) on :15r
1-4 drill/swim by 25
5-8 reverse IM
9-12 build
Main
3 x 800 going:
800 focus on front quad on 2:00r
2 x 400 on :25 swim the first, negative split the second
800 fast, negative split
This was more tough mentally than physically. With the 400s, you had to go out strong on the first one and not just match your time on the second, you had to Beat It. It's Human Nature to want to get out but with Bill telling us not to stop until we've had enough, it was hard to lose motivation. Oh this is painful. Okay, and BB let me know that he took one look at the Man in the Mirror after the workout and though he looked Dangerous. Lastly, the day would have been complete if Billy had worn Jeans.
And thus, our Lane 3 tribute to Michael Jackson is complete.
