HI, the week that has passed has been a fairly good one, Thursday, however wasn't good swimming wise and I think I'm getting some clues as to why I get cramp in my legs. Dehydration I think could very well be a major part in this problem that I'm having. I seem to get it only after I have been at work in and out of a rubbish truck all day doing what I do. I never seem to get it on a Sunday training day. Anyway I have been trying to keep up my fluids as well as the electrolytes and mag phos.
Went home to Foxton on Friday and had a really enjoyable weekend. Wasn't much looking forward to the return trip home, but alas got it done safely.
Stopped in at the AC Baths in Taupo for my swim, here's what I did:
200 warm up
100 long dog
100 duck feet
100 sculling (both hands)
LADDER SWIM
100m w/20sec
200m w/20sec
300m w/20sec
400m w/30sec
300m w/20sec
200m w/20sec
100m - last 3 sets done with pull buoy and paddles
100 m warm down
Timed my 400 8 min 8 sec - last time I timed a 400 was about a month ago and it was 8 min 24 sec.
Gym last night Chest / Triceps
Feeling shattered today. Have had a hard day.

Hey Peter, I stumbled across your blog, through someone else's blog! I did Challenge Wanaka this year, and my husband is training for next year's event (in fact, I know lots of people who are training for it - great stuff!). If you have any questions about it over the coming months, just yell out. :-)
ReplyDeleteHere's my blog, but you probably won't want to hunt out my Wanaka race report - I don't want to put you off. ;-)
