Sprint work

 Got in the pool by 8 am and did the following:

Warmup:

• 400 Easy
• 200 kick with fins

Main:

• Snorkel kicking with fins: 4 x 150's alternating dolphin, flutter, swim by 50
• 4 x 100's - first 2 flutter with arms at side, second 2 flutter on back arms at side

Sprints:

• 10 x 25's free on 1:00, try to hold :16 or better (Success)
• 8 x 25's back on 1:00, try to hold :21 or better (Success)
• 6 x 25's breast on 1:00, try to hold :21 or better (Success)
• 4 x 25's fly (not one arm, the real thing) on 1:30, try to hold :16 or better (Success)

I was actually really surprised I was able to hold those 16 second 25's on the fly.  It didn't feel very clean, but the clock doesn't lie.  Excited to think of the possibility of what I could get once I get stronger.

Distance:

• 800 pull with buoy straight

Cooldown: 200 IM easy

3,300 yards total

I'm feeling a little pain in my left shoulder, so I really need to monitor that and don't overdo it. I think I'll stick to 3000 or so and not feel inclined to increase. I need to be mindful not to put a lot of torque on the shoulders. I'm not a young buck anymore, and another torn rotator cuff is definitely not worth it.
