After not going to the gym this week I was a bit worried, but felt great. I guess the rest helped. My ab workout is coming together nicely, and I really like doing my entire weight workout at one time. The pool water was very warm today, and it made swimming hard, so I was surprised I did a 100 in 1:05, especially since I didn’t feel fast.

You did 100 yds in the exact amount of time it takes me to do 50 yds. I need to figure out the whole swim set thing instead of just swimming laps. I'm guessing that's the key to getting faster? Right now, I swim every lap the same speed. You are an excellent swimmer!
ReplyDeleteHi Mark,
ReplyDeleteI just noticed that Chad's blog was finally updated! Thanks for the heads up. So you live in Stillwater. I am running the Stillwater half in May. Are you running in either the half or the full?
Wow, looks like you have a hard workout schedule. I need help with the core and abs and unfortunately, I am not a good swimmer:)
