Oh, my aching... everything!

Oof. Today was NOT a recovery swim.

First, swim 500y of alternating drills/freestyle. Focus on glide and reach. I did a really good job with this. Finger drag, catch up, 3T, zipper, etc. Repeat until satisfied.

Now on to the main set, 10x100y alternating hard/easy effort every 15"-20".
(H) S1- 59.93/1'00.29 20" rest
(E) S2- 1'07.25/1'08.69 15" rest
(H) S3- 1'02.09/1'04.87 20" rest
(E) S4- 1'04.89/1'07.52 18" rest
(H) S5- 1'03.31/1'01.47 20" rest
(E) S6- 1'07.00/1'04.36 18" rest
(H) S7- 57.99/1'02.20 25" rest
(E) S8- 1'00.43/1'03.82 15" rest
(H) S9- 1'02.26/1'00.93 20" rest
(E) S10- 1'05.22/1'04.88

Kick drills: 200y, no kickboard. Each 25y add 2 strokes, begin with zero. This was actually much more beneficial and much less difficult than I expected. I really got to focus on the flutter kick and keeping my legs straight, knees together. I became really efficient at breathing in this position too. By the time I was allowed 10+ strokes, I didn't even use all of them, which I probably should have, but I have never done this drill before and didn't time very well. I like this. I will do it more.

One thousand yard straight swim. I counted 100s:
100: 2'06.50
200: 2'12.88
300: 2'14.02
400: 2'13.07
500: 2'12.80
600: 2'16.66
700: 2'17.84
800: 2'01.51
900: 2'12.67
1000: 2'15.13

Three hundred yards cool down. I just split this between freestyle, breast stroke and back stroke.

Tired after. And very hungry.
