Back in the pool tonight, it was hell but it had to be done - man flu or no man flu. It is always tough getting back in the pool after a lay off and it hurt. Just before UK 70.3 Ironman I was swimming well and completing 3,000 m was relatively easy. Tonight I'd be lucky if I completed 1,000 m and had to switch lanes otherwise I'd have held the real swimmers up.
I've a lot of work to do before I will be comfortable back in the pool but there are no short cuts. I need to continually push myself because in 7 months time I have 2.4 miles to swim followed by 112 miles then a marathon. So if it doesn't kill you it must make you stronger.
