Recovery week Kupo.

Easy run in the park with mainly Z2 and a bit of Z3 work. Short swim tonight w/ a Tempo effort for 950yd, which I wish I had done an extra lap and made 1000yds. I swam it at 1:50/100yd pace. My strokes per 25 were mostly 11 or 12. I will look up tomorrow how this compares to my last timed TT. If I give myself an additional 55s for the missing lap my total time would be 18:24.

Recovery wk. Changed to Gold Kupo plan. That should be less stressful for me. Got some notes from swim coach in email:

1 - freestyle hand position during pull: By the end of your pull, you should feel more of a "push" with your hand completely angled forward.
Drill 1: Whole pull with angled hand
Drill 2: Hesitation at mid pull, angle hand then push

Considering how sore and tired I am, this was a quality lesson swim. Cool I did some yeoman's work with the right arm glide entry this week as well as the pushing the left arm behind me. I learned some new drills to focus this next week on changing the hand angle halfway through the stroke. Here's the end of the lesson workset where I swam 6 x 100 on 1:50.

Longish ME ride in the park. Tired Kupo.

It took me a long time to get my HR under control while running in the park. I'm usually better at gauging my efforts up the hilly portions, but I couldn't get out of Z3 for the first 30 minutes or so of the run. I've been seriously considering changing to the gold plan and dumping the plan I'm on now. I think I've bit off more than I can chew. My legs are so dead right now they're no good to me. Sore Kupo. Embarassed

Slept terrible last night Kupopo. Worked a long day, slept on the train and yet managed to put together a decent swim nonetheless.
