NEXT PRACTICE - BYOB

(That's bring your own bike - we're going to do swim-bike transition practice and have a mini swim-bike-hot tub race)

Next week's swim will be the last coached practice, as I will likely be away on May 21, after which the pool will be closing. I will post some open water swim ideas for you to keep working out in local lakes as the racing season approaches.

For next week: bring your bike and bike gear and whatever you might need at your swim-bike transition. No wetsuits - chlorine is not good for them! If it's snowing like today, then bring stuff to bike in the snow. It won't be farther than 1-2km.

Now, for today's swim workout:
Warmup
3BT practice at wall OR 100 loose
3 x 50 as 25ez/25faster

Main Set - Giant Pyramid

300 as 2x(100fast/50ez)
50P mini 3BT
