Waterworks

I was able to get in three swim workouts this week. 90 minutes each. On Monday, we worked on 400 IMs. A blast! And then on Tuesday and Thursday I got to work with the new coach, Steve. 

I told him up front about my shoulder woes and asked him to point out any technique deficiencies he noticed that would aggravate the problem. He said my stroke looks good, but if I strengthen my kicking, that would aleviate the upper body effort. It makes a lot of sense and I hope my running will contribute to improve my kicking. I do have a great breaststroke kick, but unfortunately it does not transfer to freestyle. 

I've started this new swim cycle with renewed commitment. I've moved, for now, to a faster lane, trying to keep up.
