The workout today was hard. Good, but hard. I really enjoyed the descending 100s, even though it was rough at the end. My legs are still sore from Monday. Whine whine.

Reubin had some minor surgery and has some stitches and can't swim for a week and a half, so he was on the deck today helping Evan coach. He actually spent most of his time with our lane, helping us with streamlines and dolphin kicks off the turns and stuff. It was really helpful, and he was good at motivating me to swim faster. I actually managed to get some 40 second 50s on those sprints, even as dead as I was, so yay!

I was going to stop after that 200 pull, but then Evan got in to swim and suggested I do a couple 100s with paddles to work on my catch. My arms do not approve, but I think it's helping? Maybe?

No stroke clinic today because I have a meeting (and the pool is closed anyway). But I'm at ~9 miles for April, which is right on track.
