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

Haven't posted here for a while. Been doing much more biking and intend to keep doing some through the Winter or as much as I can until it gets too cold. But recently I've been going to the pool more and will keep increasing this to make up for less biking.
Anyway, did 3 miles nonstop freestyle yesterday. Haven't done that in over a year, since my biking accident. My goal is to get back into better shape than before the accident: RHR back in low 40s, 185 lbs weight, break my speed record on my biking commute with a lower average heart-rate and maximum heart rate. Getting there. So far, I've tied my record, but heart rate was higher, due to heavier weight and less optimal cardiovascular health.1 -
