04/03/13 - Swim Session This is the furthest I have swam to date on this plan, still not enough time in the evenings to swim the hole warm down as the pool closes at 10pm and I can only get in for 9pm. I need reduce the rest phases which I am and swim faster in the sets, which I am trying to do. It was great to have an empty pool apart from kids that were heavy petting or at least trying to in the corner of the shallow end, out my way.

The session was a late one 9pm till 10pm, so I was going to be up all night after the workout so late as I'm not a fan of training after 8pm as it takes so long for my body to shut down. It was the first session from the internal combustion of the off road race on the weekend, I was now back walking properly so I was ready to get back out training.  I decided to keep the session simple and do a basic pyramid, it was a tough one but I really enjoyed and definitely felt it in the shoulders. Once we have sorted out our house move I'll be looking to joint the sports centre with a pool The pyramid was: 100, 200, 300, 400, 400, 300, 200, 100 = 2000 meters Session ...
