The company decided to pay the 4000RMB for a 24 month swim card membership at the new place. Nice. Since I really only SWIM here, it saves the company money overall. I jyst have to adjust my Fenix until I get the rift pool length. Next swim I will set it to 21m.
No way I did 1:52/100m last night or 17/18 strokes per length when I'm at a typical 1:55/100yd and 19/20 strokes per length.
If I set it to 25m per length I'd look even faster.1 -
The pool at INGYM is a little different. But at least it has all the lanes roped.

Nice swim today. First time having an entire lane to myself for the whole swim in China. That means I didn't get kicked or scratched once.

2000m.
I really wanted to do a 2000 so I stayed in the water too long. I got to work with about 10 seconds to spare, wet hair under a layer of dry hair on top, and goggle rings around my eyes. But I did a 2000.

couldn't swim yesterday. China pollen awry was kicking my lungs badly. Better today. Hopefully I get there.
And 20m seems the right length for the pool bad on time to complete 6.4km (4 miles. )1 -

It became a shortened Swim Club as we all wussed out. The windchill factor was just to much.

2500y. Takes me a little over an hour. I really don't mind being slow. It felt good. Last week's longer swim sort of fell apart in the middle. Yesterday's was much better. Deep water class after that. I really. need to stick to my plan. It's November, so for my part of the world, that can be a downward slide through February (Valentine's day and two birthdays).2
