11a.m. Had a great Swim. Same workout as Tuesday. 3300yards. Felt Much stronger today and more fluid. Had a blast doing the 6x25yard sprints at the end. The guys in the hot tub were staring..I hope it is for GOOD reason and not because I looked like a spaz. Lol. Will show swim details again. Funny thing is I forgot my notes, but since I had them written earlier, I had them memorized:

"3000 Tempo" 

200kick 200pull 200swim

4x75 moderate Kick :15 Rest

20x50 Hard :10 Rest, :60 after ea 5

200 Easy

10x75 Build (last 25 all out) :15 Rest, :30 after 5 

6x25 @ 100% All out Sprints.

300yd Warmdown

I am wondering how many calories I am burning swimming. It's hard to gauge effort in water. As it is I gauge no perceived effort except in racing really. I just don't acknowledge the feeling of working hard, which is why Heatrate training makes no sense to my body, I feel like it is doing nothing for me..IDK....Grrrr

Ran in fluffy snowflakes..Stuck my tongue out to eat some as a I ran...I didn't care what anyone thought. This low very slow mileage is killing me....Need to ask coach if I can do more...O.o 

That is all.

I ALWAYS have a hard time determining how hard I am working in the pool. My legs don't always feel "sore" like they do when I run, hence I don't "feel" like I worked out that hard (though my arms are always sore after a swim).

I saw a guy the other day wearing a water proof HRM - I need to get one of those.

I have been trying to figure out a good source for determining calories burned swimming...One site said 2.93cal/Mile/Weight as opposed to Running which is supposed to be .653cal/mile/Weight...To me the Mile calories seem very low..and the swim calories (with this calculation) are very high..Plus swim could be a lot more effort is technique is bad..idk...WHO KNOWS? Lol...

I don't think I would like or want a HRM in the pool or an mp3 player...I get tired of having things attached to me..lol.
