Aqua girl swims again

Today at swim class I did 1800 meters. 1600 meters is a mile - so it's a little over that. This is only my 2nd class back. More than a couple of times I had to roll to my back in the recovery position to breathe since my cardio still needs a lot of work - but then I went right back to it. For my own edification, here's today's workout

Warm up (freestyle)
200 swim
200 kick
200 pull

Workout

6 - 100's

25 free, 50 back stroke, 25 free
25 free, 50 breast stroke, 25 free
100 free
(repeat)

4 100m - timed freestyle, 2.5 minutes for each set, 10 sec rest (this was an ass-kicker)

50 freestyle, swim hard
50 freestyle, swim hard

50 breast stroke, cool down
50 breast stroke, cool down

Total - 1800 meters in 60 minutes
