Drills Drills Drills

Lots of drills today. Pulled out my Zoomers to work on my sad and pathetic kick. Lo and behold, they work! Did lots of kick drills without killing my back or going backwards. Yes folks, I have gone backwards during kick drills…that is how sad my kick is.

One of the reasons I don’t use them often is a fear that they’re taking away from my workout. Fear no more! My HR was up higher than normal the entire time. The only other issue is the blister (Lisa will be so thrilled since I never blister on marathons) I get on one of my toes. I don’t have a marathon for three weeks, though, so it’s all good. (Is it sad I want to run one this weekend and am kind of bummed I’m not?)

I think I’ll get some gloves once I get paid because I also need to bring up my stroke a little better. I actually was truly focusing on that today as well since I didn’t want to over-depend on the zoomers to propel me through the water.

I need serious help with my breast kick, though. I can’t get ANY movement through the water with that! I have strong legs, what am I doing wrong?
