Idyllic March

Beware of the Ides of March...

                              -William Shakespeare

The Ides of March may be tomorrow, but the month of March in south Floida is quite Idyllic and nothing to be afraid of....

My winter routine is quite basic: run, swim, rest, repeat. The weather has been so nice this year, that my morning runs are usually without a shirt; just shorts and  my running shoes. Today's post run is spent fueling up on breakfast, and getting ready to swim with Hammerhead Aquatics with Coach John.

Today's noon swim workout was at Sunrise School:
Swim 400 yards

Kick 200 yards

Kick 25 yards, swim 25 yards x 8 at 1.10 minutes.

Swim pool mile with pool buoy:

11 lengths 275 yards 20 second rest

10 lengths 250 yards 20 second rest

09 lenghts 225 yards 20 second rest

08 lengths 200 yards 20 second rest

07 lengths 175 yards 20 second rest

06 lengths 150 yards 20 second rest

05 lenghts 125 yards 20 second rest

04 lengths 100 yards 15 second rest

03 lenghts 75   yards 10 second rest

02 lenghts 50 yards   10 second rest

1  length    25 yards -hit the showers!

-------------------------------------

Total: 1650 yards or one pool mile + 1000 yards grand total 2650 yards....

Equipment: Speedo bathing suit, goggles,  pool buoy, kick board, 15 sunblock!

Now, its time to rest.........

My time is winding down in this idyllic place, and soon we will be heading back to idyllic Maine for yet another season.
