Monday 17th January - swim testing

Volunteered to participate in Craig Neals lactate threshold swim test today. This was defintely easier than the bike and run versions. 200m warm up, followed by 7 @ 150m. Started very easy and got progressively harder, with last set being as fast as possible.

Great info, as found out what pace and heart rate was most comfortable, last set was pointless as exhausted after 150metres and only 5 seconds quicker than easy pace. Also stroke rate was way up, so lots of extra effort for no real gain.

Didn't do anything else today.
