It started off ok; did PT, walked, more PT and then I did a few chores before heading to the poll. That included taking out the trash..and ..of course some bees had started to make a nest under the lip of the lid.
One stung me.
Now my hand is swollen. But the bee sting came before the pool opened at 11 am and so I swam anyway. And I ended doing my “fastest” (least glacial?) set of 100 yard repeats since 2014.
I didn’t say “FAST” but they were faster than I had been doing.
So: bee stings means a faster swim time?
The workout: indoor PT
2 miles:
About the walk: I started out to do the first 1.1 and then finish PT..but I had it going (13:58 mile 1) and so I just kept going and did it all at once. It was ok.
Then PT 2, then the bee sting.
I decided to swim anyway:
600 (side /back)
400 of 25 fin drill, 25 swim
5 x 100 hard, 100 back on the 5 minutes: 1:37, 1:37, 1:39, 1:39, 1:39..first rep I chased a faster young man.
200 pull cool down in 3:36
Before swimming: 202.3 after: 200.9
