I am starting to find it a challenge to plough through the same breakfast every morning. So today I kept it simple, fried egg on English muffin washed down with a cup of Illy coffee. This is my other favourite brand of percolated coffee. In fact, the best coffee that I have had since my move to Singapore was an Illy coffee that I had at a hotel I stayed when I travelled to Bangkok for work last year. Delicious.
This morning I had a session with coach Louise at the Queenstown pool. As most of the squad that I normally swim with were away today, I had the coach to myself. This is a good thing, because you get lots of attention, it is a bed thing because there is nowhere to hide. Still I need to work very seriously on some aspects of my technique such as right arm recovery, body rotation, stretch under the water. The whole stroke in fact..
This morning was scheduled a special time trial. 10 X 100 m with 10 sec recovery, see how fast you can go so that rational interval times can be calculated for future sessions.
With a 400 m warm up and 400 m drills and a 300 m hypoxic swimming, I covered 2100 m for the session.
That was pretty much me for the day as far as training goes. I had my regular chicken lunch and dinner of chicken and vegetables in a light tomato sauce washed down with a bottle of Austrian (no spelling error) white wine. Light and fruity with just the right amount of sharpness.
To bed and ready for what may come tomorrow.
