Swimming Intervals

Late afternoon

WU: 200y with paddles, 50y without. Practicing length and lowering stroke count.

Workout: 2 X 8:00 min with 3 min rest.

Completed just over 400y during each interval. Breathing became very labored during the end portions of these intervals, mostly due to the increased use of flip turns probably. Still, there is something to be said about increasing aerodynamics and reducing drag, as opposed to increasing propulsion through the water. Tiredness brings out a tendency to "speed" things" up, whether by increasing stroke rate or increasing power. Focusing on slicing through the water takes much more dedication.
