Run: 20 minutes at a slow pace outside to get warmed up for-- stretching!
Swim
wu: 250 alternating each 50 swim and kick (using the board while I kick is awesome practice, because my legs are definitely the weakest part of my swim. I need to figure out how they are suppose to propel me forward rather than just splash, ha ha).
main: 400 (8.06min), 4 x 100 (1.50, 1.56, 1.55, 1.54min), 300 (5.30min), 3 x 100 (1.55, 1.58, 2.01min), 200 (4.10min), 2 x 100 (2.0, 2.0min)
cd: 1 x 75, each slower than the last. I love the breaststroke for cooldown!

Total main time: 26.57min
Weights: After reading the book Weight Training for Triathlons I've started to pay attention to the difference between my fast twitch and slow twitch muscle (aka- power vs endurance). I thought I was pretty powerful until I tried sprinting during the 10k, where I realized that I don't have nearly enough speed. I'm going to try weight training, even if it comes at the expense of an endurance workout once a week. Maybe it won't happen, because tomorrow morning at 6am is ballroom team move-up try-outs, and I want to be able to move for them!
