PM - Swim & Run
* Swim at Brooks - did 200 wu ( 100ez / 100 kick) then did 4x400 (with first 100 at very hard effort then settled in for 300) - was trying to simulate race situation where there will be hard effort to first buoy. Felt pretty good on those efforts (5:39 [1:10] ; 5:42 [1:16] ; 5:42 [1:19] ; 5:52 [1:20] ) -- then i did 5 min cd with pull buoy / paddles.
Total swim time = ~ 43 min
* After the swim I went out for a tempo run around the office park by the gym - ran on the sidewalk and did 2 miles WU (7:42 ; 7:44) then did 2 miles @ tempo pace (7:02 ; 6:43 ) - it started pouring rain right when I was starting the first mile so it kind of threw off my pace a bit but I settled in for the second mile. After that I did a mile CD - 9min (jog pace).
Total run time = ~ 40min
