Swim pyramids

Thought it was time to go back to something more interesting than just swimming, so did 400m warm up and 3 x 400m pyramids (1-2-3-4-3-2-1 lengths). Set it up as 37 secs per length, building up the unused time on each length to use as my rest when it came. After the first one I felt 37 was a bit easy, and so took it down to 35 for the next two. Swam consistently at 30-32 secs per length, tiring towards the end, although on a couple of the single lengths I did sprint, for the hell of it. 100m cool down and I was out of there.

Arms ache a bit from the 20 min row last night, but nothing too bad. If being injured means I swim more, this may not be a bad thing!
