Filling in for him was a friend of his that used to swim fro BYU. She did a good job and I think we all worked pretty hard, so as to not let down our real coach.<\/p>\n<p>I was in the Axe Grinder lane again tonight with Jeff and Andrea. Somehow I managed to stay away from the wall. Maybe I&#8217;ll become friends with this lane after all. In the next lane over was Steve. He was really working hard tonight. It was all I could do to stay ahead of him on the 9 x 50s we did at the end of our warm-up.<\/p>\n<p>Coach Durant left instructions for us to do the main set without fins unless we couldn&#8217;t make the interval. I thought that was a great excuse to just use fins, but Andrea talked me out of it. We only managed to do the first 3 without fins, then finished up with our fins on. Steve did the whole thing without fins. Wow. Between Andrea and Steve challenging me, it&#8217;s amazing that I found an excuse to take it easy for the second set of 3 x 200 (I even went last after Jeff and Andrea). I felt bad about that and moved up to second for the last set and then took the very last one as hard as I could. So at least it wasn&#8217;t a total slack job. It&#8217;s great to have people like Andrea and Steve there to push me so hard.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Warm-Up (1050):<\/strong><br \/>\n1 x 600 (200 Free, 200 Back, 200 Free-Back: rotating every 5 strokes)<br \/>\n9 x 50 Free  on 1:00 (3 x (1 x &#8220;smooth&#8221;, 1 x medium, 1 x &#8220;strong&#8221;) )<\/p>\n<p><strong>Main Set (2200):<\/strong><br \/>\n3 x 200 Free on 3:30 no fins<br \/>\n1 x 100 Easy<br \/>\n3 x 200 Free on 3:30 with fins (i went last and took these a little too easy)<br \/>\n1 x 100 Easy<br \/>\n3 x 200 Free on 3:30 with fins (i went second, second, and then first and pushed it)<br \/>\n1 x 200 Easy<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Coach Durant is out of town for the state championship swim meet this weekend.
