OK, I want to thank you for saying you were focusing on pulling with lats. My lats are relatively huge for my puny body so your reminder was awesome...all that mass of muscle is happy that you reminded them to wake up and my arms are not trashed at all now!!!
OK today in the feats of strength category, 1:40 hrs 5200m swim
main set
Sorry, I did not time anything. Set 1 was essentially the 1000m of 50/50 fly free with recovery 25's built in (but basically 10x50 fly + 10x50 free). Set 2, obviously there to try to get down to 3:40 in my Feb attempt at 200 IM for the ST virtual swim meet (Monty, what other events are on deck this month?)
Today's technical focus were:
