Swimming, 31st August 2017
Today I swam pretty much the same session as yesterday. It was a harder start to the session to be honest. I was struggling a bit at first, but eventually got into things and by the last but one 250 … Continue reading
Swimming, 30th August 2017
Today I did 2km as 8 x 250m swimming “odd” lengths breathing to the left, “even” lengths breathing to the right, followed by 400m kick and finished with some 50s with full bilateral breathing trying to get into the tumble … Continue reading
Swimming, 29th August 2017
No swimming on Monday this week because of the bank holiday, but a repeat of last Friday today, and it felt very good. Things seem to be starting to come together. Total distance for the month: 47,200m Total distance for … Continue reading
Swimming, 25th August 2017
Missed out on swimming yesterday due to having more fun than any one person should be expected to handle at the dentist. Today I went back to my normal bilateral breathing practice, with some kick thrown in as well, for … Continue reading
Swimming, 23rd August 2017
Bit of a change for today. I went to a SwimFit session at one of the local pools. It was quite a tough session, mostly drills and kick, so I didn’t cover much distance — only 1,200m. Not sure I’m … Continue reading
Swimming, 22nd August 2017
Back to the same practice for bilateral breathing — breathe to the left on “odd” lengths and to the right on “even”, for 2,000m. I also tried to bear in mind the observations of the coach from Monday night that … Continue reading
Swimming, 21st August 2017
I went to the tri fitness swimming session in the 33.3m pool again today, but instead of my normal swim session rather than in addition to it. It was quite a different set to last week: 6 lengths swim 6 … Continue reading
Swimming, 18th August 2017
And the same thing once again, but perhaps today it was a little easier. And my session today took me up to 15.1km, which is certainly the furthest I’ve ever done just swimming on weekdays. Total distance for the month: … Continue reading
Swimming, 17th August 2017
A repeat of yesterday, but with more tired arms 🙂 I’m just going to keep plugging away at this bilateral breathing until it gets easier, though I might try to find ways to make it a bit more interesting doing … Continue reading
Old Speckled Hen bottled
Much of this evening was spent in the beer shack, bottling the “Old Speckled Hen” that I started the weekend before last. It wasn’t ready to bottle last weekend, so I left it a couple more days and got it … Continue reading
