Swimming with Mori, the Rowdy Gaines lookalike

This morning I did 600 free before starting with Masters:

600 warmup
400 - 4 x 100's 50 drill/50 swim
I was in a lane all by myself with four others in with Will the next lane over.  Mori joined me and led for most of the workout.  
200 - 4 x 50's kick alt free/fly kicks
300 - 4 x 75's 50 build/25 fast IM order
200 - 8 x 25's odds fast/evens free IM order

200 - 4 x 50's kick alt free/fly kicks
300 - 4 x 75's 50 build/25 fast IM order
300 - 6 x 50's odds fast/evens free IM order
200 - 4 x 50's kick alt free/fly kicks
300 - 4 x 75's 50 build/25 fast IM order
400 - 4 x 100's free on 1:25

All sets were with 5 seconds (or less rest) in between.  Moriwas really pouring it on!  His pace was faster than the other lanes as well as shorter rest intervals.  It was fun trying to keep up with him.  He reminds me of Rowdy Gaines.  A good looking trim older dude who has a body to make all the ladies blush.  And probably the fastest swimmer on SALT.  Our lane was done a few minutes before the others.  Excellent workout
1200 - 4 x (200 pull, 100 back)
600 easy

Then did my own channel pace stuff:

2000 pull
1000 kick with fins
1000 finger paddles
1000 - 600 free no equipment, 400 PT paddles


10,8000 yards total in 3:10  Great day

I stopped at Surf N' Swim and got all my equipment I left behind.  Whew!
