Swim Remedial

SL and I got recalled by Coach for swim remedial class every Friday. Oops.

It had been some time since I was last in a Friday class. The intent was slow swims, focusing on drills and correction of techniques. Drills were tougher than swimming laps, in my opinion. We did about an hour-plus of drills and proceeded to swim.

Coach video-ed a snippet of my swim where my right elbow was dropping into the water before my palm entered. Hmmm. Ok so I had to focus on deliberately twisting my right shoulder a little more, and lifting my palm to my ear before entering the water. The action felt exaggerated, but surprisingly looked right in the video!

I had to leave early before the concluding sprints for Fatbird's night run. Oh what a rush...
