Rest at the wall. Just kidding.

Oddly, just an hour later, all I can remember is the main set. Here goes:

100 IM, 2x75's free, 3x50's IM transitions, 4x25's anything you want, 3x50's IM transition, 2x75's free, 100 IM

After each swim, vertical kick with hands in the air until last person arrives. Then continue vertical kicking as a "family of kickers" (nice term, Tim) for an extra 10 seconds before shoving off.

Enjoy!

I think warm up was a 400 free, 200 kick choice and 100 IM. Then we did 4x100 IM where each time we kicked a different lap (first the fly length, then back, etc), followed by 4x100 free where we kicked each length to the 3rd blue line, preferably underwater. I think that was it before the pryamid. At the end we did that 3-5 seconds of kicking then swimming for a few laps. Then we did a 100 kick with the board for best time. Whew! I was ready for coffee and a shower after that!

Butter My Buoy?

I know it's going to be a good day when the morning opens with one of my muscled male teammates (fully clothed of course) opening his parka to me for warmth while listening to the warm up set. (Apparently he hadn't heard about this damning blog yet :). Things just got better (if that's possible) from there. The fact that the main set was done with paddles didn't lessen my excitement when I heard Tim say "Eight 300's." Whooohoooo! Freestyle junkie heaven. Little did I know this uber set would also be a chance for me to improve my swim-cabulary. After the first 300, Emmit (correct my spelling if need be) popped up during the rest period and said, "Okay. Someone buttered my buoy". Fabulous. I don't know if Emmit made this term up or if I've just been unfortunate enough thus far in my career not to hear it, but I love it. I immediately knew exactly what he meant. This whole buoy buttering is exactly why I never, ever, use a buoy. It drives me...
