If you've paid attention to my blog at all, you know by now that I'm a bit analytical...ok, maybe more than a bit...anyway....I started looking back at my race swims to see if I'm actually making any real progress.
2006 HOT Olympic Distance: .9 mi swim, 49:06 = 3:23/100m
Fla 70.3: 1.2 mi swim, 1:02:12 = 3:13/100m
Ocean Marathon: 2.5 mi swim, 1:57:50 = 2:55/100m
Looks like I've taken ~30 secs off my 100 meter pace. Go me!
Speaking of swimming, our new swim coach rocks.
Last nights swim was 2850 yds:
Warmup: 200 swim, 150 kick
6x100 on 2:15
400, 300, 200, 100 descend
50 easy
150 kick
9x50 hypoxic (varying 3-5 breaths / 50)
5x50 ascend
Tonight it's 45 minutes of running bridges (our version of hills) before tomorrows 4.5 hours of riding in actual hills
Live with purpose....Enjoy the adventure.....
