Swam with Roger, Dave, Dave and Dave this morning. Kent swam on his own in another lane. Kent did an untapered 17:05 or something like that in his 1650 last weekend! Pool temp up to about 84. Definitely warmer than it has been. Wore my Nike jammer w/o a drag suit. Had my first premeet nightmare. Dreamed I went out too fast in the 1650, paniced and started drowning. I always seem to have nigtmares about races I haven't raced in before. Last year it was the 200 fly. On a better note, it was my daughter's birthday last weekend. She wanted an underwater video camera for her birthday. Who am I to deny her something I could occasionally use to video my stroke underwater? Just to show how good of a dad I am, I volunteered to try it out this morning at practice. Video to follow later. I might have "accidentally" dropped the camera in the water before telling my teammates it was waterproof. SCY 400 Warm up 4 x 50 - 1:00 Down accelerate, back easy (Fly, Br, Br, Fr) 4 x 50 Kick - 1:10 Down accelerate, back easy (Br, Fly, Fr, Fr) Rest 4 x 50 Pull - 1:00 Down hard no breath, back easy Rest 4 x 50 - 1:00 Get up to speed for test event (28s & 29s) 75 Easy + Rest Timed 500 From Dive broken at 50s: (5:13 total time in water) http://youtu.be/3R0p1AtJGZc Went out on :27 - probably a bit fast. Rest were 31s and 32s. Supposedly, I should be able to do a 5:13 at the meet. I'll believe that when I see it. Definitely think I can make 5:25 if things go well. Comments on my stroke are very welcome and appreciated. Not sure I'll change anything before the meet but it would be good to know what I can improve on. 175 cool down (1950 Total)
