Energized

Had a fantastic workout again this morning.  Started out with:

1000 free before joining SALT.  Will came up with this morning's workout.  I loved it.  Lots of distance pace swimming followed by all out sprints.  My sprints felt great.  Definitely not graceful, but quick though.

600 warmup
600 - 6 x (50 kick, 50 free drill) on 1:00, :50
300 - 2 x 100's easy pace (hit 1:25), then 100 sprint (hit 1:10 or faster)

400 - 3 x 100's easy pace (hit 1:25), then 100 sprint (hit 1:10 or faster)
500 - 4 x 100's easy pace (hit 1:25), then 100 sprint (hit 1:10 or faster)
600 - 5 x 100's easy pace (hit 1:25), then 100 sprint (hit 1:10 or faster)
700 - 6 x 100's easy pace (hit 1:25), then 100 sprint (hit 1:10 or faster)
800 - 7 x 100's easy pace (hit 1:25), then 100 sprint (hit 1:10 or faster)
900 - 8 x 100's easy pace (hit 1:25), then 100 sprint (hit 1:10 or faster)

I was landing between 1:05 - 1:08 on all those fast sets.  I like the change to the slower pace, but went all out on those fast ones.  Felt great!  Took a drink of my orange perpetuem after every sprint, which kept me energized and I never did bomb out today.

400 easy

Then I joined the second group:

100 kick on 2:00
200 - 4 x 50's one arm fly on :55
100 kick on 2:00 ( first and third length fast)
200 - 4 x 50's touch and pull on :50

400 - 4 x 100's IM on 1:45

300 - 4 x 75's back on 1:15

Then I did my own thing and topped it off with:
