This was not my workout. Well, it was, but not my idea. I swam with a new group of friends. They are significantly faster than me. I did the same intervals, but I had to adjust the distance to stay up with them. This explains my odd distances and short warmup set. I had to figure out how far I could swim in their intervals. The first 150 of the main set was a trial to see where I was at, especially adding in IM as they were swimming their sets all free.

So, back to the swimming. It’s wonderful.
