Some days you have choices. Like this morning. At swim club, after warm-up, we had a choice: either a workout of the usual style, or 1x3000m. After seeing most of the club choose the more varied workout, I knew I'd be doing the long set. (As a general rule, most people will seek the easier option. Then I'll take the other one.)
Let me just say, 3000m is a long way. Especially with my slightly reduced swim fitness. I got off to a good start, and generally felt pretty strong, but my pace started to fall off during the second kilometre, and it was a fight to keep things together during the last K. I didn't get any chance to draft, so this was a full solo mission. I'm happy to say I finished under an hour (59:40), but I could have been much faster if I wasn't exhausted. Tonight will be a very, VERY good night's sleep.
