Hard to wake up today. I guess I should cut on the Picon Bière ;-)

First of all, be sure to check http://www.youtube.com/user/wymcaswimclub Lots of cool videos about our swimmers!!

Today my swimmers continued to work on a mix of middle distance fitness and non-freestyle swims. A special mention will be made later to the slow lane at 8.15. Here is the work; the fast lane at 8.15 (Doug, Lisa, Jeanne, Linda) worked like the 2nd fastest at 6.20:

warmup: (1000 m.)
200 choice
10x50 pull on 50''/55''/1'
6x50 kick on 1'05/1'10/1'15
main set: (1700)
non-stop
8x100 IM on 1'50/2'/2'20
6x150 free, progressive 1->3, 4-6, on 2'30/2'50/3'15
Meredith, Jen and the 2nd lane all over did great. Martin rocked on the fast ones (1'42 and 1'46). Olivier was flying too, despite going 4th on the fast lane.
then,
100 EZ

slow lane 6.20: 100 fins --> TOTAL = 2900m.

6x50 kick on 1'10/1'15
middle lane: 200 EZ with fins -- 3300m.
fast lane: 10x50 kick with fins -- 3600m.

The slow lane at 8.15 (Juan, Kathy and... I forget her name :-( SO SORRY) are working with the clock!! It is hard for them, but they are going to get it, eventually. Juan swam 102 laps (2550m.) today!! YAY!!

Back to the pool, baby!

Yes, I am back at the pool. Went to the 2nd lane at night, swam with Kathleen, Michele, and this other nice girl whose name I never recall. Martin coached us, good stuff. 3300 m., some fast breastroke and free. Hurts like hell, but I guess I deserve it :-)
