Working from home, no swimming today. My OH away tonight - no swimming tonight either. Still there's a Cursader tomorrow.
Yesterday we did a speed set, what was good about this was Dave the very speedie was in the lane next to me and during our pre-set he basically said, my turns are (at least yesterday) rubbish. To be fair he's right, at the moment I think I turn like an old man (hey I am getting to be an old man). But it's good to be reminded of the fact.
Warm Up:
1 x 400 EZ
1 x 400 EZ-swim,
on the odd turns: fast turn, 7M underwater fly kick, 7M fast
Main set:
From a dive, two lots of (first set free, second fly)
2 x 15
2 x 20
2 x 25
Finalle
1 x 50
I like sets like this - I enjoy diving from blocks (as it's not stuff I get to do often). The last 50 was 29.1. Something I think I'll get Craig to check next time we do similar is the drop-off on the second half. I suspect that I "die" on the second length, but I don't know whether that's down to a poor turn, or lactate-build up.
