Nearly as exciting as watching someone swim laps

DISTRACTED

6x200: (100 Crawl, 50 Back, 50 Breast)
-------
1200 m (1000m 27:11)

Good swim, but my mind was apparently elsewhere (or perhaps nowhere) during this swim. After the first 200 m, I realized I had forgotten to start my stopwatch. Numerous times I found myself swimming the wrong stroke in the program. When I thought I had swum a total of 800 m, I looked at my watch and it said 22:10, which is my normal time for 800 m, but the first 200m weren't included in that time. So if I had only swum a total of 800 m my time would have been awfully slow. Since I planned on swimming a total of 1000 m, I swam 200 meters more, and checked my stop watch to see how long it took. Since it took my average time of approx. 5 minutes/200m, I deducted that I must have swum a total of 1200m.
