Feb 11 workout

The Total Immersion (TI) book I am reading is really worth it. I swam in college and was skeptical I would learn anything; but it’s been years, so my form is probably off. This book helped remind me of good swimming form. AND I learned some things. My butterfly was MUCH better last night, better then ever. The guy next to me was a good swimmer, and he said I was good at butterfly.
