Introducing The All New Garmin Swim Tardis Watch
Wednesday, June 19, 2013
I'm on a roll! Two days in a row at the pool. After teaching the 6:30am Spin class I headed to the pool to do a quick workout. The pool is open to 8:50 so I figured I had 50 minutes to swim. I really stopped at 8:45 since everyone was getting in the pool for the water class which starts at 9. Oh well. I got a workout in.
Warmed up a mixed 500 yards. Oddly my Garmin Swim had me at 425 at the 400 mark then after swimming 500 yards had me at 400 yards. It was like I had a time machine on my wrist. I was pulling and I do realize that this happens from time to time when pulling. Never a 100 but usually off by a 25 or so. Oh well.
6x50 kick with fins on 1:05. Doing a kick set after spinning class is never a fun thing to do. (300/800)
Then I started my main set which I had to stop about 1/2 way.
2x50 1x100 - 50s on :50 - 100 on 1:40 (200)
4x50 1x200 - 50s on :50 - 200 on 3:20 (400/600)
6x50 (300/900)
I messed up since these 50's was to be on 45 and I did them on 50. Here is what I didn't finish:
1x300 - 50s on :45 - 300 on 4:30
4x50 1x200 - 50s on :45 - 200 on 3:00
2x50 1x100 - 50s on :45 - 100 on nothing
Swim faster coming down. Use the 50s for pace and swim well on the longer swims.
So a 1,700 yard workout. This workout was from a little over a year ago. I should have been a bit faster in what I swam. My splits were horrible. I just couldn't get myself going. But at least I swam something I guess.
