When I was planning out my next swim workout in the pool, I wanted to encorporate a 10-minute time trial. I feel stronger and faster in the pool and wanted to see if there has been much improvement. In the process, I found a post from last February where I had done one, and the overall swim was 1600M. I thought if I did the same thing, it would be fun to compare numbers.
Here's what today's results were in comparison to a year ago:
10-minute time trial:
Today...........................................Last Year
525M (1:45/100M) ..............................400M (2:30/100M)
Overall workout - 1600M:
Today...........................................Last Year
35:07 (2:11/100M) ..............................42:00 (2:37/100M)
And, to top things off, I KNOW I could have pushed myself harder! I left the pool feeling good, but not tired. Hmm.
When I got home from work today I found my two packages propped up beside my front door. That irritates me when the postal service will do that, but at the same time, I didn't want to pick it up, either.
Look at what I got!! I can't wait to try the yoga video and start reading my book! I am really hoping that encorporating both into my routine will help with my knees and my overall strength, core conditioning, endurance, and flexibility!
Today's Workout:
Swim - 1600M, 35:07 , 2:11/100M
Today's Song:
