It was just Maddy and I so we decided to work on Backstroke for the 400

We took turns leading so we would hold the interval, the shorter distances were difficult for me but the 300's I breezed through.



I again was relying on good swimming form to carry me through the sets instead of muscling through them. I'm starting to do that a lot now and I think it's a good thing. My plan for the new season was to move to lane 5 and hold on to the end of the group but it's just been a few people in the lane and I've had to do a lot of the leading so it's been harder than I planned, but I've been able to do it. Maddy is a great swimmer that swam Lane 4 with me a lot before and we seemed to have made the switch at the same time. I'm really glad to have her company.
