Swimming lesson #4

Today I achieved the objective I'd set for this block of swim coaching.

I crossed 2mins/100m threshold

This was my second 'sprint' attempt today, the first was 2:01, which would have been satisfactory, but to break the threshold, even by a fraction of a second is great. Over the last 2 weeks I've been focussing on longer sets, up to 350m, whilst concentrating on form, which seems to have paid off.

My plan for the next few weeks is to continue with my endurance programme but to also include a 88m sprint test in my session. My target time will be 01:45min which sounds faster than I've ever managed...
