Swimmy Swim

I was tired this morning, but I talked myself into the pool by telling myself that it was "only 20 minutes" of swimming, which is kind of true...

I started with 3x100m drills (catch up, finger drag, left arm, right arm) and followed with a main set of 10x100m with 15" rest between. These were supposed to be just under race pace (figure 2:00 per) and the goal was to keep them consistent. I feel like I accomplished this to the best of my ability. And it only took 23 minutes. :)

Cool down was an easy set of 5x50m mixed and drills. I did finger drag, catch up, one lap easy freestyle with sighting (I keep forgetting to sight during main set), breast stroke and back stroke.


Unfortunately, fatigue got the best of me by the afternoon and I bagged my 85 minute easy bike ride. I could totally fathom the 4 laps of the park. What I couldn't fathom was hefting my bike down and, more notably, back UP the stairs. I could barely get ME up the stairs this evening. And as much as I love Coach Troy, I really didn't want to spend an hour and a half stationary today. Oh well. One for the wind.
