Over Under

Tuesday morning:  Today's main swim set was interesting.  We did:

1.  4x25yds free sprint
2.  6x25yds over under
3.  6x25yds over under
4.  300yds IM of kick, drill, swim of each stroke
5.  100yds of free pull while dragging your partner.

For the over and under set, two groups of swimmers started on opposite sides of the pool at the same time.  One group kicked fast flutter kick with a kick board.  The other group kicked underwater, no breath, with fins.  It was pretty fun to kick with the kick board and see the opposite swimmers with fins swim below you, like sharks at an aquarium.  Then, when you got to swim underwater, it was cool to hear the kicking above you.  It would have been more fun if Marcia had given us more than the 10 seconds rest in between.  Standing on the sidelines, Marcia yelled at the kick board kickers, "Kick faster!  We're counting on you!" and at the underwater kickers, "You don't need all that air!  No breath!"

After last weekend's swim meet, I wonder what Marcia has in store for us next.
