The beauty of a 25 yard pool
I’m Canadian, eh! Which means my pools are 25 meters. Not 22.86 meters. I mean who else in the world – other than you crazy Americans – makes something 22.86 units long. Swimming in the shorty pool does however make you feel like a rock star. I can swim 1:20’s no problem. I knew there was something up when I was still swimming 1:25s by the end of the set. Smile.
Here’s the pre-race workout from Coach Tracey:

Cool Down:
100 non free choice
100 kk
100 pull
2000m total*
*crazy conversion factor required
