Back At It Swimming :)

So this am I got my butt to the pool and made myself swim at least 3000 yards. Well... I swam the minimum of 3000 and was beat to the bone afterwards! Here is what my workout consisted of! BTW it's a Marci original so feel free to take it and do it while at the pool :)

Warm Up
300 Swim... no kicking... get a feel for the water
2X150 Pull @ 2:30
200 Drill... 50 Right Arm/ 50 Left Arm/ 50 Catch Up/ 50 Fist

Transition
4x50 IM Order 25 Drill/ 25 Swim @ 1:00

Main Set
2x100 @ 2:00
200 Kick
2x100 @ 1:55
