Preparing for the Singapore Triathlon: Week 2, Day 1

What a difference a few days makes!

During my swimming session last Thursday I was feeling particularly whimpy.  Today, not.

I started off today with a light breakfast of sausages, scrambled eggs and chick pea salad.

Then I set off to the pool.

The session today was a lot of fun, starting with 400 m of drills for warm up.

Then 12 X 100 m with fins consisting of 4 sets of the following:

100 m IM on 2 min 15 sec
100 m kick on 2 min 15 sec
100 m FS on 2 min

Then I did 2 X 300 m with paddles and pool buoy broken up as follows

100 m easy and 50 hard and repeat then take a 30 sec rest before doing the second rep

Finished off with a 100 m FS warm down

Total distance covered was 2300 m.

I then raced off to work where I had a egg white wrap and capuccino from Starbucks

For lunch I had braised chicken.

Dinner consisted of vegetarian quiche with salad washed down with 2 glasses of red wine.

Very happy with the session today, I went to bed tired and content.
