Subject: RE: 5-30-16 Memorial Day Monday Swimming and Shopping
Windy and Hot start to the day in the Mojave desert prevented a run or bike ride, so.....Off to the pool I GO!
Swim is my weakest link right now so I was happy to go, it was quiet and had my own lane all to myself. I practiced my high elbow catch, focused on my pull and overall form. Used the kick board and pull buoy focusing on front and rear forms. Also new for today's practice was Flip Turns and Dolphin Kicks. Still getting winded just trying to do 150-200 yard continuously, pushed through with several 100yd repeats and spent a good solid hour in the water drilling and lapping.
Then went shopping and purchased Joe Friel's 'The Triathletes Bible', some new swim jammers. and a resistance pull tube for arm exercises.
Hope everyone had a great holiday weekend!
Special Thanks to our veterans and current serving military service men and women, Happy Memorial Day.
