«Great workouts!»
Waterproof easy to use. Meant for serious swimming distances. Lots of codes to refer to-but does come in handy by the wet pool!

«Confusing--should be organized along the type of Triathlon you want to do»
There's almost too much information here to pick and choose from. The codes and 'coach-talk' can be difficult to follow.
This book would be more helpful if it were organized along the lines of what you want to accomplish as a triathlete. For example: (1) Sprint Tri: do 'these swim workouts.' (2) Same with Olympic and Ironman distances.
She states '10 new workouts for Ironman distances' but then doesn't really state which workouts those are in the book.

«Good book for Triathletes who need direction in the pool»
I bought this book after I mistakenly bought the newer, updated version that had workouts more geared for swimmers (different strokes, really high volume, etc). I am very pleased with the book, it offers direction and a plan for those who previously just jump in, swim 1500 and leave. The book has different types of workouts (endurance, speed, strength, etc)and has 2 versions per workout (one usually 500M less than the other). Each workout is 2000M-3500M, so it can be done in a reasonable amount of time. Waterproof pages are key as well
