Today's Wednesday which means I get to work at home, meaning no hour commute in the morning. I should have been able to spend more time swimming but unfortunately I wasn't able to make it into the the pool too much before water aerobics started which means 5 lanes were used for aerobics and 1 lane for lap swimming. This wouldn't be so bad except all of the snorkelers and older swimmers just jump right in with me. Below is what I intended to do, the yards are correct but the times are a bit off since I had to take more rest at times to let someone else pinball their way down the lane :(

Swimming: 3500 yards 500 swim 400 pull 300 kick 4 x 100 IM :40 rest sprint fly sprint back sprint breast sprint free 9 x 100 free :60 rest/set 1-3 on 1:40 4-6 on 1:35 7-9 on 1:30 10 x 50 free :20 rest no breath from the flags in no breath until 3+ strokes from wall 6 x 50 kick sprint :20 200 warmdown

Running: None Biking: None

Additional:

• Lifted upper body
• Used the elliptical for ~10 minutes and did ~1.25 miles

Comments:
I really need to get to bed sooner so that I can get up earlier so that I can have more time during lap swimming, it's really hard to swim what I want to while splitting a lane with someone. Also, on the days like today where I have more time to do stuff other than swimming I should run/bike instead of taking the easy road and using the elliptical
