Saturday Swim Workout

As my 15K race is tomorrow morning, I got in the water this morning. I had a good workout. My lats felt tight at first, but I felt good at the end. Here was my workout (all free):
WU: 200/100/50 on :30
Main: 400/200/100/50 on 1:00
Pull: 200/100/50 on 2:00
WD: 400/200/50 on 2:00
I stopped my watch at this point, and it was 1900 on 37:00.
I fooled around for about another 200, doing some breaststroke, and freestyle 25s. I also did some "breath work," which for me is a 50, the first 25 swimming underwater the entire length of the pool, and the next swimming freestyle with only 2 breaths.

The race tomorrow is at 7 a.m. It's early, but at least I will be done early. My fastest 10 mile was a 1:25:33 (at the "Perfect 10 Miler race last August '04. See www.perfect10miler.com.) I am thinking that my target time should be around 1:20- 1:30, just because I haven't been running as much this year, due to no fall marathon. My real goal is to just beat my arch rival, who is also running the race (heehee.)

After the race, I want to get back in the pool for a recovery swim.
