Swimming 35:00 [3] 1.4 km (25:00 / km)
Lido wetsuit - balmy unheated 22. Tried high elbows but seemed so different with ws, 400m wu. Then 4 x 100 av 2.05, then 5 x 100 av 2.02. A couple of unexpected (pb) 1.59s. Around 5s quicker than 3 weeks ago - happy!

Swimming 25:00 [3] 0.8 km (31:15 / km)
Spectrum 25m - coaching went very well. Need to kick from hips, legs together, keeping feet relaxed and pointing. Rather than arms swinging over top, need to pull up side by concentrating on raising/pointing elbows. What a difference, quicker tempo, even made catch and pull easier. Got the hang of it with bilateral breathing with lots of rest, longer efforts will be the real test.

Swimming 30:00 [3] 1.2 km (25:00 / km)
Pool in Park (25m) - lunchtime, did some drills, otherwise fairly aimless. Need a planned session. Also need a regular fast swim and a regular endurance swim to maintain steady progress.
Just worked out stroke rate around 48-50i(!!), way way too low, with hindsight a worthwhile session.
Swimsmooth suggests around 55 for my pace, so not drastically low, certainly feel 60 is a medium term target, whilst also lengthening stroke.
