A light workout this morning.  Azalea race will be in two days.  A very similar experience this morning as the last couple of swim sessions (mon & tue).  A long, relaxed reach and glide then a powerful catch.  My times this morning were much faster than I expeced. My perceived exertion was around 65%.  
5x300(1')
1-2: descending. 4:25, 4:30.  No hurries, very relaxed.  Stuck behind swimmer in front, but couldn't pass between the flags.  Form felt good.  Push offs were strong.  The turns could have been smoother, becuase I wasn't anticipating my distance to the wall very well. I seemed to get to the wall in the middle of a recovery stroke. 
  
3: broken at 150 neg. 2:08, 2:07
4: broken at 100 descend. 1:26, 1:25, 1:17.  For that last one, I gave about 85-90%% effort.  I wanted to see how fast I could go without breaking form.
5: alternate 50 fast, 50 slow.  I didn't keep time.
