Swimming 10/25/15

Spent the weekend in Montreal eating poutine and not working out - sufficient motivation to clean my diet up this week.

Swam 1,000 yards (40x25yards) plus a few sprints at the end, 30 mins total:
3-3-4-4-3-3 laps with 5 sec rest for every lap, bit of an improvement from where I started probably over a month ago with 1-2-3-4-4-3-2-1 laps with 10 sec rest for every lap

Then 25 yard sprints very 45 secs for about 5 mins
