Smashed my PB this morning, think it might have been the lack of swim lanes and a bit of space to blast up and down the pool without having to dodge people.
Did 6 x 400 this afternoon and will try and do a quick(er) one tomorrow I think .... I did one under 7 mins first off but it wasnt as quick as I though or as quick as it felt!!
3 lots of 400m this morning. Pool was quite busy with the local swim club taking over 2 lanes so I ended up in the slowest of the general public lanes concentrating on my technique which was quite nice.
The first round of winterswim is open today for 2 weeks. 100m TT. Barely managed any swimming last week, hoping to do quite a lot this week...
I was talking to a guy in the swimming club, who is also in the tri club. 4k is an easy session. 7-8k is the norm! 100m in 53s and that's not even his strong event. Really puts the gap between club swimmers and the average triathlete into perspective.. there's hardly that big of a gap in running or cycling is there?
Had a stab at the 100m today. Just under 1:22 but I reckon 1:18 should be doable before the window closes! I haven't swam a 400m recently though. Hopefully i'll get a chance to swim this weekend.

Just back from the pool. Swam a new PB at 6:06. First time ducking under 23 seconds per length
Did 6 x 400 this afternoon and will try and do a quick(er) one tomorrow I think .... I did one under 7 mins first off but it wasnt as quick as I though or as quick as it felt!!
Quality session M..eldy! I just did a lazy warmup, 400m TT and a lazy cool down before hitting the sauna
