Swim practice - 6/23

Today's exercise simply continued on the previous swim sessions goals - spend reps on the new mechanics until they start feeling more normal. By the end of the session, having an earlier hand entry definately started feeling more second nature, but I still felt like when I wasn't paying much attention to it, my hand had a tendency to enter too far ahead, so I'm not quite there.

As a way to combat being out of breath during the skating, I tried something else - skating on one side for a few seconds, followed by a switch and skating on the other side. It wasn't quite as effective as I hoped, because I was still not breathing quite as often as my lungs wanted to.

Total distance was about 1300 yds.
