2500 yards in the pool today, did 5 x 200 for a main set, did these on the 3:00, coming to the wall about 2:40.  I also did a hard kick set with fins, torched my ankles, but in a demented way it actually felt pretty good.  Finished with a 50 for time, the first I have done in many moons.  I watched an older gentleman do one so I was inspired. Swimming the 50 is a lot like running a 200, go until you die, it is fun though. I came in around 25 seconds, which is a far cry from my best, but it was not a meet, and I have only been swimming 2 weeks. Who knows maybe in another 2 weeks I can drop to 24 seconds!!  It was fun none-the-less.

The wind kept me most of the night, so I was a little groggy getting up.  Did an early morning swim, it actually felt pretty good other than the bubble about blowing off the pool.  Did a pyramid set 400,300,200,100,50,100,200,300,400.  The goal was to keep the pace around 1:20 per 100, and I managed to do that.  I am anxious to get back on the run, but I still think it is going to be several more weeks.  3000 yards total.

Close to 3000 yards again in the pool.  I did some faster sets this evening, 50's on about the 30-32.  Felt good, I am getting stronger and stronger in the water and it is getting much easier.

Well I thought I would start my morning with some abdominal exercises so I threw-up!  A great start to the day.  Spent the rest of the day sick with some stomach disorder and a migraine to top it off - overall a great day.

Ok, 2000 yards in the pool with a whole mixture of things.  I did 3x200 IM and that was kind of fun.  Nice to know I can do 50 fly without drowning.  Anyway, feeling much better and glad to be back at it.

Nothing like starting the month with a big fat 0.. An uneventful 2000 yards in the pool, a couple sprint sets, not terrible fast, but ok.
