Swimming, 23rd August 2019
Last swim of the week, and a new target time: 400m f/c warm-up 24 x 50m f/c, target time 49s, turnaround 75s 200m swim down I first failed on rep sixteen for this set, and finished with one additional failure. … Continue reading
Swimming, 22 August 2019
Same session with the 49.5s target time today, and I made all the reps comfortably, so next time the target drops to 49s. But… Big news of the day was doing another “fast fifty” at 39.17s! Frankly I’m astonished to … Continue reading

A repeat of yesterday’s session, but today I made all the reps. One more time and I’ll drop the target time again. No “fast fifty” at the end today though. USRPT distance this year: 169,300m Total distance this year: 217,500m
Swimming, 19th August 2019
The pool has cooled a little now, so I have decided to go back to proper USRPT sessions, with a target time of 49.5 seconds: 400m f/c warm-up 24 x 50m f/c, target time 49.5s, turnaround 75s 200m swim down … Continue reading

I hope today is the last day when I feel the pool is too warm to do a proper USRPT session. The weather has been much cooler for a month now and the water temperature has definitely started to drop. … Continue reading
Swimming, 15th August 2019
There’s a definite feeling that the pool is starting to cool down now. Give it a few more days and I think we should be sorted. “Fast fifty” today was 40.84s! Under the 41s straight away. Most pleased with that. … Continue reading

Warm pool again, so no USRPT. “Fast fifty” of 41.28s. All of a sudden, 41s looks beatable! USRPT distance this year: 165,800m Total distance this year: 210,300m
Swimming, 12th August 2019
Another week, and the pool is still too warm. As I can’t really work on a proper USRT set, to amuse myself after doing my currently passes for my main set I’ve decided to have a couple of minutes rest … Continue reading

Had a bit of barney with Mrs Indignant Triathlete today, who wasn’t chuffed to be asked to move into the slower lane to allow my son and I to swim in the faster one. She claimed to be able to … Continue reading

And another warm water day… USRPT distance this year: 165,800m Total distance this year: 204,900m
