The C word

Swim session:

400m warm up
8 x 100m sprints on 2:30 (aiming for 30s rest)
4 x (25m right arm, 25m f/c, 25m left arm, 25m f/c)
150m cool down

Then got out of the pool and got inner thigh cramp. Couldn't stand up - had to get back in the pool and go over to the steps. Grrrrrrrrrrr.

Apart from that it was great. All the 100m reps were <2 mins apart from the last one (2:02). Tried the single-arm drills with the "dead" arm beside the body, instead of in front. Still tricky though. On the left arm reps I get some big wave sloshing over from behind every time I breathe?! I spend so much time spluttering and floundering that I don't think the drill is actually helping much - probably just need to practice more though.
