Interesting swim tonight. Was circling 4 to a lane so had to stop a few times to make room. Passed all my lanemates but no one passed me. Hmm. Fast lane too. Still making no claims about being fast.
Out of nowhere came a 6 beat kick. Dunno if it was adding propulsion, but it kept my feet up. Also was getting good body rotation both directions. Realized why my rotation (up) to the right has been bad, which is why I could not breathe to the right, because I was not pushing my left shoulder down the same way I do my right shoulder when breathing left. Focusing on being symmetric (pushing both shoulders down the same) made the rotation better and it felt like it made the pull easier too. Very interesting. Too bad I didn't have clear space to see how fast I was going.
Will probably only swim tomorrow (450 yards) and then that will be it before the tri.
