Elayna came up with this workout today. It was much easier than yesterday. I like having shorter distance swims. My body isn't used to swimming more than 50 yards at a time. My favorite set was the 20x25's. The pool at Northwest is probably 90 degrees. Its very warm for a lap pool. We got a hose with cold water going into it and that sure makes a difference. I swam my guts out to get that 1:10 - 100 free. I sure am slow compared to the good old days. But hopefully I'll get faster and stronger. I didn't lift today - figured I'd let my body recover from yesterday.

Swimming with Elayna was fun. She was able to do this whole workout with me. I would have given up 1/2 way through the 4 x 100's if she wasn't with me. So I'm glad we are a team. This is a personal best as far as how far we have swam in a workout, since the Deseret Gym was destroyed. I feel like my lungs are already so much healthier. My arms are Jell-O though. I had to get up at 5:25 to get there in time. I was there early so tomorrow I will be getting up at 5:35 instead. Elayna will be coming up with the workout for tomorrow. I hope she doesn't get burned out with this. I'd like to get back into it. It also means I get home at a better time too because I go straight to work after this workout at Northwest. I'm at work at 7:30 which means I can play ping pong at lunch or lift for an hour and still get out of work by 4:30 so Cathi can run at 5.

Lots of fun!

I wanted to get under 6:00 on the 500 but accordking to the splits (which Kelly Dean took for me), I went too fast on the first 100. I need to slow down and pace the whole thing out. Next week I want to get under 6:05 for sure since I got 6:15 last week.

Ricks College Intramural Swim Meet 1995

Today I went to swim for the Ricks Intramural meet. I was out of shape and haven't swam seriously for about 3 months now. I swam three events.

50 free - 25.32

100 free - 53.55

50 fly - 26.12

I took first in the 50 fly and the 100 free. If I swam all the events I would have probably taken first. The guy that took first only won because he swam all the events and took first in only 1 event. Oh well, I was very pleased that I got these times. Now I feel like getting in shape for the triathalon. We'll see.
