Jacob's first High School swim meet

This is actually his second, but the first one I've been able to attend.  He swam the 200 free and the 100 Breast.  His form looked good, he just needs to work on his turns and increase his aerobic endurance and fitness.  Here is some video of the first 100 of his 200 free (I ran out of memory on my cam).



This morning I swam with masters at SDRC.   The water temp was at 80° because of the High School Thanksgiving Invitational going on tonight and tomorrow.  I love it when it's cooler.  Did a preswim of:

3300 - 3 x (1000 free, 100 drill)

Then did's "I'M crazy" workout.  It was surprising actually how well I did considering I really suck at back and breast.

Warm Up - 900 Yards
300 Swim
100 IM Drill
50 easy
450 - 6 x 75, Kick, Swim, Drill

Main Set - 1950 Yards
1 x 300 IM
50 Free
2 x 200 IM @ 3:00
50 Free
4 x 100 IM @ 1:30
50 Free
8 x 50: Fly-Fr, Ba-Fr, Br-Fr, Fr-Fr, Repeat
8 x 25, IM order Sprint on :40

Kick Set – 200 Yards
2 x 25 Dolphin Kick @ 2 seconds rest
2 x 25 Backstroke Kick
2 x 25 Breaststroke Kick
2 x 25 Flutter Kick

Then moved to the north end and did:

750 agility pull free
250 finger paddle free

Total: 7, 350 yards in 2:20

Tonight I meet the crew out at the GSL marina for a cold water swim.  Lots of wind going on right now.  I'm expecting the water temp to be around 48 or 47°
