Swam 3200, 61:57.
500 m splits: 9:55, 9:39, 9:37 (29:11 out), 9:29, 9:34, 9:43 (28:46 in, 57:57 for 3000), 3:59 (61:57 for 3200). Each of today’s splits was within 5 seconds of their counterpart from last Thursday (29:12 out, 28:37 in). I probably swam a bit easier today, but took longer taking my splits, as most of the lights were off and it was hard to see my watch.

My left shoulder is feeling much better – it used to begin crapping out between 1 and 2 miles. Now, I only feel a little twinge every now and then. Stroke refinement probably accounts for part of the improvement, as does increasing strength and plenty of (swimming) rest the last couple weeks (I’ve run 14 days out of the last 16 and swam twice).
