I’ve decided that Tuesdays are going to be fun/unusual set workouts. I’ve been swimming alone, writing my own workouts since before Christmas now. Even though I’m incredibly grateful for access to a pool, it’s lonely at times. I miss my coaches...

This is a fly emphasis swim workout today. I think I did more fly than I needed, but, you know, some days, it’s like that. Oh, and I ended up doing an extra 50 because I miscounted one of the 200s and swam more fly than I intended. So, I swam 2750. That last 50...
