Swimming, 23rd February 2018
I could still feel the tiredness in my arms and shoulders today and I knew the pool would be a bit chilly thanks to the cold weather overnight (no, the pool isn’t outdoors, but the building was constructed before insulation … Continue reading
Swimming, 22nd February 2018
I ended up skipping yesterday because my arms and shoulders were clearly still tired, so today I was back in the pool to do: 400m front crawl warm-up 25 x 50m front crawl, target time 57s, rest interval 23s 200m … Continue reading
Swimming, 20th February 2018
Third time of asking for this set today: 400m front crawl warm-up 25 x 50m front crawl, target time 58s, rest interval 22s 200m front crawl swim down The first six or seven 50s were down in the 45 and … Continue reading
Swimming, 19th February 2018
Six days without a swim 🙁 A combination of work and a change in the opening times of the pool for half-term got in the way most of last week. I repeated my previous set today, but with another four … Continue reading
Swimming, 13th February 2018
As I’ve managed my previous USRPT set three times without a fail and need to make it harder, I decided I’d drop the target time to 58s and have a rest interval of 22s, so the set now becomes: 300m … Continue reading
Swimming, 9th February 2018
Didn’t get to swim yesterday, so today I repeated Wednesday’s USRPT set with a truncated warm-up and swim down because of the time available: 300m front crawl warm-up 25 x 50m front crawl, target time 60s, rest interval 20s 100m … Continue reading
Swimming, 7th February 2018
A repeat of yesterday’s set: 400m front crawl warm-up 25 x 50m front crawl, target time 60s, rest interval 20s 200m front crawl swim down And another successful completion! Managed a few 47s, mostly 48s and I think one 49 … Continue reading
Swimming, 6th February 2018
Had a bit of a domestic emergency yesterday that meant I didn’t have time to swim (although I came close to needing to swim in my own kitchen!), so today was my first attempt at my next USRPT set: 400m … Continue reading
Swimming, 2nd February 2018
Did my best to repeat the same USRPT session of previous days, but I was late getting to the pool for the hour it’s open to the public between swim schools, so I cut my warm-up short and even then … Continue reading
Swimming, 1st February 2018
Another repeat of the USRPT set I did yesterday and the day before that: 400m front crawl warm-up 25 x 50m front crawl, target time 60s, rest interval 25s 200m front crawl swim down Managed to complete the set without … Continue reading
