A good day.  Hit the pool at about 6:30am.  Did 20 laps in 32:45.  Considering that 4 of those laps was with the kick board, that's slow but improvement.

So what's the goal?  1900 meters.  The Y's pool length is 25 meters, so one lap is 50 meters.  That means I need to do 38 laps.  I contend that swimming in the pool takes much more energy than open water swimming like I'll be doing in the 70.3 Ironman.  Open water swimming, especially in a wet suit, will be much easier.  Still I need to work up to doing 38 non-stop laps.  Right now I am stopping to rest too often.  So really a lot of work needs to be done.
