Straight Swim

Drills to warm up (are you surprised?), 300y finger drag, 3T, one-arm freestyle, 3T, catch up.

Forty-five minute straight swim. The first 36 mins, 15 seconds comprised the first 33 laps. This is roughly the distance of the swim in the tri. I was not going at a race pace, but was focusing instead on my breathing. This means, as far as I can tell, that my "slowest" pace at the tri would be around this time... provided, of course, that I don't completely freak out, switch strokes, go off course, go into shock, have an asthma attack, stop, or drown.

Overall, my average lap was 1'05. I pushed the pace to 1'00 for the final lap, finishing 41 laps in 45'07.53. Here are my splits:

L1	65.75		L11	60.19		L21	67.13		L31	68.4
