The rules


Bill is all excited about next week because he gets to behave like our old age group swim coaches and punish us when we digress from his plan. I just hope that he doesn't get the hose out because that is not a fond memory of mine. The plan next week is to raise money for Swim Across America/Dana Farber Cancer Center. Here are the rules: From Monday through Friday, if you come late to practice, it will cost you $5. Leave early, $5. And on Friday, each lane gets to buy themselves out of any set they don't like. The biggest question is what exactly constitutes being late? If we are on deck before Bill, are we on time? Or do we have to get there at 6:15? My take is that being there before Bill is on time. That makes it pretty easy. Here is what we did today.

200 warmup
2 x 50 drill/swim
3 x 50 fly, back, breast
2 x 50 one arm/build
4 x 50 work on stroke
more 50s - I could not follow this
2 x 25 kick with fins
50 kick easy
4 x 25 kick with fins
50 kick easy
6 x 25 kick with fins
50 kick easy
400 pull hypoxic 3,5,7,3 by 50
Twice thru:
200 fast on 2:45
100 easy
150 fast on 2:00
50 easy
150 stroke fast
50 easy
100 stroke fast
2 x 25 easy

I didn't remember the stroke sendoff, but we got about 10-15 seconds rest if I recall. I bailed before the last stroke set. Have a good weekend everyone!
