P.A.P Monday Swim

Perfect day to start the week, and after what started with Crossy Lad and myself a couple of months back for more a recovery swim has now built up with the likes of Coach Walker , Brendan Krone, Angus, Champ and Cialis all joining on a more regular bases, thus meaning the pace is nowhere near as easy as it once was.

A good 300m warm up and then called the ‘Pyramid Set’ that is 1,2,3,4,3,2,100m with the emphasis on the second half faster than the first. Basically just sat on Kroney’s feet the whole way as the times were more than honest.

1.29, 3.02, 4.40, 6.01, 4.36, 2.56, 1.22

Nearly killed me the final 100m and again I don’t think I’ve ever swum as fast for a final lap. Just hope it all pays dividends in the next tri ?

Had the ‘floaty pants’ on again though and they make a huge difference in times.

 

Need to harden up and get back on the running program tomorrow again, been very slack lately and its certainly showing , No use doing all this swimming if when the run leg comes along I can’t even run 4.30s

Will be back out with the HuRTS team tomorrow for the 8 x 5 minute efforts

 

Cheers

 

**** For the record I did 100m cool down to make it 2k for the day – just saying as I wouldn’t want that Crossy Lad to give me a serve.
