This morning I got to SLCSC at 6:15 and did 1400 yards before the official start of the masters meet. I saw Wes swimming and had to snap some video. His stroke is so crisp and clean. I would love to have some video of him swimming in an endless pool with the video in a loop. Then put that video as my desktop background on my computer. That would be sick!
Then Wes had us do:
1000 free negative split
500 - 5 x 100's on 1:15
500 free negative split
1000 - 10 x 100's on 1:20
I ended up pulling on the last 8 of these and was able to get slightly faster on each one. Felt great!300 easy warm down.
4,700 yards total in 1:40
It's supposed to be warm today. Looking forward to a GSL swim this evening.

This evening I met Chad, Josh and Jim at the marina and setup the new Swimmer flag. I need to make a few modifications to make it final, but for the most part the concept appears functional and I think it'll make our presence more known on the water.
The water felt good getting in, but upon arriving at the marina entrance the water temp dropped like 3-4 degrees. I was determined to do a round trip of Gridley Strait. Felt fine going out. There were some waves pushing me at my 5 oclock. Coming back I felt a little chilled. Not terribly so, but enough to make me wish it was over.
When I got back I saw Goody and Jim waiting for me at the dock. Man Goody looked good. He has lost some weight and even was sporting a goatee. He looks like a million bucks. It was nice to see him in that state. He's got a couple more weeks of Dr ordered dryness, and he's antsy to get back in. Total distance: 2:05 according to GPS in 1:02
