In the last few weeks at swimming we've done three different test sets
1. 1650 for time, straight
2. Broken 1650 with structured rest, subtract 2:30 to find swimming time
3. 16 x 100 on an interval with a 50 sprint at the end.
Sharing a lane is lovely because of all the drafting, but it can also be tough to get a "good" test in. For instance in the first test, I was with some people who were too much faster than I am, so I was lapped enough to only get 1500 done before it was time to move on to the next part of the workout. It was a good 1500, but it's certainly a caveat-ed result.
The second test was awesome, and if my results are slower than some other time I've done it, it's just because I swam slower.
Today was the third of the tests and it was awesome. I was drafting, but strong, and hit the 1:50 intervals, which I've never done before (that I can remember)
Anyways, so at the risk of being even more of a "training log", I'd like to archive some results so I can come back to them more easily.
| Date | Test | Result | Pace | Notes |
| 1/27/15 | 1 | 24:30 | 1:47/100m, 1:38/100y | 1500 yds |
| 2/3/15 | 2 | 29:28 | 1:47/100m, 1:38/100y | Time after subtracting, 25m pool |
| 2/12/15 | 3 | 1:50 interval | Made all send-offs, 1-10 sec rest, 25m pool |
