Another trip to the pool with my son 🙂

Given yesterday’s debacle I decided to stick with the same set again. It wasn’t long though before I felt I was struggling. I just didn’t seem to have the energy to push off the wall as hard as I could and I’m sure I was breathing harder between reps than usual.

At halfway it started to feel quite tough, but I managed to push on to sixteen reps, then twenty, and after twenty-one there was no way I was going to allow myself to fail. So happily I completed the entire set, even if my legs did feel like jelly at the end.

I think next time the target time has to come down to 49s. I think I only had one rep over 49s today, so I really ought to be able to improve on that when I’m feeling more energetic.
