2 more good swims... and not much else

Have had another 2 good sessions in the pool, Thursday and today. Was extremely happy with Thursdays session with no cramp after a hard day on the truck. We've got 26 weeks to go until Challenge Wanaka and I know it's going to get harder but it'll be bloody worth it.

Thursdays swim:
200 w/up
100 x 6 kick flip drill
100 shark fin drill
100 zipper drill (drills done with fins)
3 sets of 300 aerobic swim w/:20 rest, then 50 HARD w/:20 rest, then another 50 HARD w/:20 rest
200 pull buoy
200 pull/paddle
100 w/down

Total 2200m

We did something new tonight: the 6 kick flip drill, it was different, to be fair, but fun at the same time. New is good.

Todays session went like this:
200 w/up
8x25 start easy build to hard w/:10 rest after each
100 one arm drill ( did this one properly today )
100 catch up drill
200 technique swim w/fins
5x100 as 75 steady, 25 HARD w/:20 rest
400 pull buoy
400 paddle swim
200 w/down

Total 2300

Finished the Hamish Carter story today. Not a bad read. I'll start the Kerre Woodham book tonight, after I start to plan my training leading up to the City 2 Surf. Haha got nothing else to do, my family are coming home in the morning.

Have a good week my amigos - Que tengas una buena semana
