Workout Of The Day - 5th July 2009

Taking it slow today at the pool but the general public was much slower and got pretty irritated by the slow-mo's blocking the lanes. And then as usual there were the fast, free-style swimmers who don't look where they're heading.

WOD:

  • 10 laps of swim sprints
At least I got some sun on my skin! And its back to food galore tomorrow for the next month or so.
