SWIM: 4300y in 95 mins. 3x1000 Locos.
I woke up not wanting to swim. I went to the pool not wanting to swim. I warmed up...you get the idea.
The WU was an 800y, with kicking q425y. This made for a nice 75 swim interval and a short interval to rest and think about form. When the WU was done, I still didn't really want to swim.
But the loco is one of my favorite workouts. 25easy/25fast; 50/50; 75/75;100/100; then back down for a 1000y interval. The first one I swam in 20:03, certainly not fast but I wasn't TT'ing either. Especially when half of the swim is "easy". So that was good. The 2nd one I pulled and could feel the off-balancedness of my swim. My right arm is not catching effectively. But I still felt fast(er) and long in the water. 2nd interval in 19:10-ish.
The 3rd one I tacked on just to hit the 4000y distance. I pulled the first half in 9-some odd minutes, dropped the pull buoy for the next few laps until my ankles started talking, then took the buoy back to let them rest. The CD and extra 300 was 50's. The last few I did only to do them. I didn't enjoy them particularly, I just wanted the 2.4 distance. Got it!
