Fast and Slow

I went to PHS this morning. That means I got up at 0414 on my day off and drove 17 miles(34 round trip) so I could swim with the Petaluma Masters workout group. I tried to get there to do 1000 choice but I only did 6-700 yards before the workout started.
3x(3x50, 45, 45, 60), 2xturn at flags
8x100 choice, 2min. I did IM order, no back(2xfly)
8x50 60sec
8x25 30sec
6x100 IM 2min
6x50x25
4x100 kick
4x50 fly/free
out
4350 to here, with the traditional 1000 choice warm up, I think I ws about 250 or so short this morning, so I ended up swimming good for 4000 yards.
add
2x100 free
2x50 f0ee
2x25 free
350 for a 4700 yard workout, yeah, we didn't make it to the last set, but we got close.
I told the coach that i got my Blue79 in the mail yesterday. I freaked when my friend and my son grabbed the suit and tried to rip it inhalf. Thank heaven that they are really strong suits. Yeah, I got a Blue70, and I am not proud. I think that I will only wear it at Nationals. I do not think that I want to wear it at PMS,and I still am undecided about SPMA. deaAnn sent me the workout from Friday and i swam it yesterday. the warm up set is the same as the one we did today, I did it incorrectly at Tuesday's workout.

I think there was 12x25 here at the end, because the workout was 4600 yards. I talked with Gail Roper about the workout and she said that it is too many yards and I should be going with the clock. I told her that although this workout is longer than most of my own, I also work with the pace clock, but I was following the workout that was given to me, and it was personalized for me too.

In addition to the swimming workouts on Tuesday and Wednesday, I did weight training at work on Sunday and Monday. I used heavier weight on Monday and I really didn't experience soreness. I walked on the treadill both days for 30 minutes.
