Pinecone Fish

30 minute PARTY I mean timed swim! this specific workout is designed for beginners, but obviously any level can do it. Meant be repeated monthly, with the goal of bettering the distance each time. Good practice for beginners or triathletes looking to do Olympic/Half Iron distances to get used to swimming without stopping.
