Tuesday went to pot

Tuesday - 1050m Swim. Including a 400m time trial in 6m24s

Well, yesterday I was supposed to do at least 3250m of swimming. Well I got to the Thames Turbo (TT) session to do this, only to discover that the coaches had a time trial on the cards, and only a 400m one at that...Rats and Rats....so by the end of the session, I'd only managed to do 1050m.

But I'm not going to panic. My plan all along was to sacrifice swimming sessions if needs be. So I'll carry on with the rest of the plan for the week and just not worry about the swim.

My time trial was a bit pants...6:24, no good really. I should be much closer to 6:00. But I'm not going to stress too much about it as this isn't the right time to worry about speed work. I'll definitely be up for doing it again in about 2 months time to see if there is any improvement. It's also a sign of age though...I remember at the height of my water polo 'career', I could do 200m in 2:45. But that was almost 10 years ago...
