Thursday AM brings forth a swim and bike workout. The swim was the longest of the season so far. We started with the usual 300 yds of warmup and 450 yds of drills. The main set is 12 x 100 yds timed swims. The objective is to be consistent throughout. I end up with 12 numbers between 1:45 and 1:55. I am pretty happy with that for consistency. I will email those numbers to Sedonia to see if she agrees.
I see Coach Simon at the start and ask him about the Achilles pain I have. I tell him it feels like a bruise. He refers me to Coach Dave. I go about my swim. As I am finishing up, I notice that my legs are crossing over and I am kicking my own achilles with my shin. No SH!T, no wonder my achilles is hurting!! Light dawns on marbled head.....
I work with Coach Mike on how to not kick myself. It seems simple enough, STOP KICKING!!!!
I finish up my workout and this is by far the best I have felt in the water.
So exciting.....
I move the bike workout to Friday AM. More on that tomorrow....
