Three rest days this week! I feel like a real slacker.
Tue: 10x100m swim. Instead of thinking fast, I tried thinking smooth.
Here're the lap times: 2.13, 2.13, 2.17, 2.17, 2.19, 2.18, 2.19, 2.21, 2.25, 2.20; ave: 2.18
Compared to the same workout last week, the average this week is only 1 sec slower. But I didn't feel as breathless and tired after each lap. Faster recovery. Total distance: 1.7km
Wed: Slow jog. Went out at 9 am, and the temp went from 30 deg to 34 deg. Heat training in preparation for hot run in Bintan.
The first three km were like being reacquainted with a familiar friend ... Zone 3 (HR 130 - 145). Had been some time since I ran in this zone and, well, it felt good. Especially after weeks of speedwork, I miss those Z3 runs. Completed 12 km.

Wow, how do you keep track of time each swim lap?
The Timex Ironman model has a chrono function that measures lap splits. :)
