Its the start of the penultimate week of my marathon training and I'm going to have to squeeze all my runs into 4 days! I am going on a jolly to Edinburgh on Friday until Sunday so that's 3 days out of the running equation!
Luckily with tapering the miles aren't too serious!
So tonight was another double whammy!
First up was a run!
The plan was to run 4 easy miles.
I actually did 4.2 miles at an average 8:47 minute mile!
My fastest mile was mile 2 which I ran @ an 8:38 minute mile which considering I was supposedly running easy is rather impressive for me!
A couple hours later it was time to go to my usual Tri Club swimming session and yet again the focus was on endurance!
After a warm-up we did 7 sets of 300m with 30 seconds rest in between each set! I felt fairly relaxed and comfortable swimming tonight and really enjoyed the session.
In total I swam 2150 metres or 1.34 miles or 86 lengths! I did an average pace of 2.29 minutes per 100m.
I'm slowly getting faster and one day I might just swim like a fish!
