Aborted Half Gordon

This afternoon I was going for a long swim 20,500 yards to be exact.  But once I got to 14K my right shoulder was starting to bug me and I didn't have any Ibuprofen with me.  I didn't want to risk an injury and I had already been at it for 4:15 so I called it good.  Today's workout came from Anne Cleveland.  I was attempting to do all the workouts she had prescribed for the week, but only made it through the first three:
