Swimming 35:23 [3]
27th swim of the year...Decided today was the day for my 450 TT that I have done the last 25 years....my times indicated I had an excellent chance of going just under 7 minutes which would be an excellent result.....
decided to warm up with 6 x 100 on 2:30 like last year when I nailed a 6:55.8
1:34
:43 (google filled with water so I stopped at 50)
1:29
1:29
1:32
1:32
times looking good for a good TT
then xx 50
:43
:44
:44
:45
ready to go....plan on smooth entry, good push offs and using my new found kick....no peaking at the clock...
pushed off and felt pretty good....
mid swim I was a bit uncomfortable.....
the last 3 50's were very hard as I felt like I was holding on and gutting it out....very very hard swim...
touched in 7:06.07......didnt quite do it.....
not sure I learned anything on this one....I am not sure what went wrong but I am not sure I missed what I thought I could do......decent result, not bad. but thought I was capable of more...
hard to think about doing another 450 TT this year.....its a painful endeavor....

Note
new anti flam has really knocked down the knee pain in a big way.....did various :30 run test on the road and treadmill.....about 3 of them.....if I job slowly on the road the pain is a 4.5 with no guarantee it would not go higher as I run....treadmill was a 4 at start but rose to 6.....also did a 5% run at 13:30 mile thatt seem to minimize the pain.....my be a possibility in the future.....
these are all tests as I dont plan running a real work out for the next few months but I can keep my curiosity from testing it.....the antiflam I am using could be the thing that really takes care of this......and with my new unloader brace coming I have some hope this will all work to get me running at a decent pace next summer in triathlons....
