A Swim at Last

Yes after weeks of not getting in a proper swim, I thought it was time I got in the pool again and as this week is a recovery week a swim instead of a hard brick session was a good option. I did a 30min spin to loosen up first, and then hit the pool.
 
The am was to focus on endurance form, including a few timed 400s for #winterswim and the set looked like: -

 
WARM UP
  • 1 x 400m warm up (8:05)
BUILD
  • 10 x 40m build (strange sized pool)
MAIN SET
  • 1 x 400m hard (7:34)
  • 2 x 200m hard
  • 1 x 400m hard (7:35)
  • 4 x 100m flat out
  • Rest
DRILLS
  • 2 x 200m fist drills
  • 2 x 200m catch up
  • 1 x 200m kick
  • 1 x 200m easy

 
I felt quite good after the session apart from one of my shoulders started to ache so I cut things short and ended up with 3.6k instead of 4k but considering I have not had a real swim for some time.
