Morning everyone. Just back from my later than normal Saturday morning swim. 440m breast, 440m back, 720m free, then 200m back, 200m breast, 400m free. Finished with a couple of fly laps and finally managed to do 40m non-stop (2 lengths) - woo hoo! I am getting there.0

Great workout, Panda!!!!!
No swimming the past few days (uncooperative weather) & I won't be able to go in the water Mon-Thurs. this coming week. Hopefully I can at least do a little bit tomorrow.......0 -
Panda, Good job on the consecutive fly laps! Fly is a real killer!
I swam Friday but 2km instead of usual 2.4 as had to rush off for a meeting afterwards!
I believe it was also my second day since I began the tumble turns and hopefully the elimination of a lot the resting times will reduce overall swim time further!0 -
Another great swim this morning. Alternated 200m back, 200m crawl, 200m breast for an hour with a final distance of 2.5km. Feeling good.0

Anther great workout, Panda!!!!!0

Just back from the pool on this horrible wet UK bank holiday - repeated yesterday's session and finished with 4 laps of fly (but with breaks in between).0

Great workouts by both of you, Panda & Bruce!!!! Can't go in the water until Thursday afternoon at the earliest, probably won't get any more lap swimming in until Thursday, Sept. 4 BUT that's when I'm back in NY after the summer & should be able to start getting my long workouts in 4-5 days a week, along with some walking.......0

1.5 miles tonight. Plus some running/walking this morning. Feeling strong. Plan on doing 2 miles tomorrow. If all goes well.0

My swim today was a 100 metre pull.
It is sad and pathetic but a sprained ankle means I cannot kick and I can even feel the strain just pulling.
It will be at least a month before I will be back in the pool. Even if my ankle gets better the pools are closed for maintenance till mid Sept and I will then be away for a wedding.1 -
Ashen, although it sucks not being able to swim the pool being closed is a blessing because it will allow your ankle to heal & then you can get back to it at 100% health instead of not allowing the ankle to heal properly......1

Mrs J1 that is impressive. Might have to do something like that myself.
Swam yesterday and today - did the same thing both days - 2km in 45 mins mixing up free, breast and back. Pool was too busy to get any fly done.0 -

Yay I can join in this thread!
Yes I did swim today
I swam a total of 1736m in an hour. Managed 116 (x14m) lengths of breaststroke without stops (putting feet down), plus 8 lengths of front crawl kick while I practised turning my head out of the water to breathe. Going to master this and will then introduce the arms. 
Overall very pleased with today's swim. 0 -
Great job, IHTOAU!!!! Keep at the freestyle, you'll have it down in no time!!!0
-
thanks! I've been looking on speedos pace club website and they've got a "development" section with workouts/drills for freestyle so I've got a few more to play with my aim once I'm back at school is to do 30 mins breaststroke, however many lengths, just to get my heart up at a consistent rate, then spend 10-15 mins practicing my freestyle. That way if I balls it up it won't impact on my burn, but at the same time I'm still developing and improving one day I'll swim a mile freestyle but for now 28m with good form will do me 0

OK, the depression is setting in today...My YMCA has been closed since Aug. 22. I was able to swim at our downtown location twice, but I had my heart set on swimming today. Nope, they don't open until tomorrow. And I cannot swim before Friday. Ugh
