    Done this morning with a 200TT of 2:43 which gives me a CSS of 1:26.6/100m. Recently started swimming 4x a week which seems to be making a big difference. Will be working in some more threshold work and less aerobic training over the next few weeks so hoping to go sub 5:30 next time!

    TT with the club earlier, 20 seconds faster than one I did solo in a different pool 3 weeks ago, I think a combination of a bit of competition, a bit of a draft and a bit of fitness explain the difference. Happy out.

    This was done as part of a 4*100 on 1:30, so rest is included in that time. I'm happy though because there wasn't any draft, like there was in my faster Jan time, so represents a "proper" PB.

    First 100 was solid, a too fast 1:16, but meant plenty of rest. The next felt as solid, but came in 1:24. The third was pinching but still came in 1:28. I did the fourth in 1:24, for a 5:54 400m in total (time from start of first to end of fourth). I'm happy with this as it was solid controlled swimming.

    1.16? Getting close to the magic 1.10 ;)

    Did my swim after watching a group of kids bang out 60s 100's... nothing magical about 1:10, its there for the taking (for your taking too!).

    My 11 year old daughter is now tipping my heels over 50m, the 9 year old chap another second behind,..........adult learners have no change against kids.

    A "proper" PB this time, while I was 4th in the lane, the lads took off and I had no draft. Racing yesterday so I wasn't sure how the body would respond, but as it turned out this was a good way to try the TT. My pacing was assured, each 100m was similar, I plugged away knowing I was swimming solidly.

    So while there may be a few more seconds to shave off a pure 400m if the body was rested and prepared, I'm happier to be able to swim a solid 5:50 as I did tonight, at this stage of the Tri season. It's a more useful gauge of how the swim will go on race day.

    Did the Oly in Lough Cutra. The body was pretty sore and stiff today, but I usually find a dip in the pool works wonders for that. I'd say that the race yesterday was an honest reward for winter pool work.

    Winter miles; summer smiles :)
