Had a lunchtime swim in Dewsbury pool today. Didn’t have very long, so I did a 400m swim with a pretty slow start, timed at a rather poor 9 mins something, then a 100m sprint at just under 1 min 40 secs. It’s hard to be sure at Dewsbury, as the pool is 33m, so you finish at the opposite end, and the clocks are small and useless! Still, I’m confident that I got the 100m again. This time I actually used my legs for the final 15m and it felt to make a massive difference – but mainly in how tired I got! I don’t think that I could kick for a whole 400m, but I might have another go at the 100m and see if I can kick all the way. 1m 30 secs?
Of course, I need to get the 200, and then the 400 to keep the IGFF happy!
Wish me luck!
