I swam this at the Lawson swimming pool in Regina, Saskatchewan. I didn’t have time for the backstroke sub-set so I put a short warm down in there. Continuing to train reasonably hard for a surf-trip I’m taking to Panama in April 2018.

  • 1 x Pull
  • 2 x Freestyle
    (There was actually no pull in the original version of this but I like to use the toys I take to the pool.)

Warm Down (300m)

• 200m kick with fins
• 100m chill IM

Alternate backstroke sub-set (1300m)
