It's one thing having a schedule to focus as it gets results but at the same time you need to be prepared to change if necessary. Yesterday was that day and I am so glad I listened to my body which was asking for a rest - even on an easy week! So when I got up to swim this morning I felt refreshed and my legs, which were the main source of tiredness, felt good. This led to a very productive swim session this morning. It wasn't a long swim, just 1,900m, but it was interval training against the watch and I was able to work on my technique at the same time. I left the pool knowing I had worked out but wasn't shattered.
This recovery will help when I am filming tomorrow for a short promo video for my Mission Ironman conference speaking as I will be open water swimming in Loch Lomond! Should be challenging as today snow is forecast. Once my digits have thawed out I'll report back.
