IronMan Swim

I wanted to do a long swim to make up for skipping workout on Thursday. I ended up swimming 80 laps or 4,000 yards (2.27 miles) - just shy of the 2.4 miles (4224 yards) swim distance of an IronMan triathlon. It took exactly 1 hour and 30 minutes to complete.
  • 1st 500 yds: 10:47
  • 2nd 500 yds: 10:42
  • 3rd 500 yds: 10:37
  • 4th 500 yds: 10:48
  • Accel Gel & water break: (break): 0:37
  • 5th 500 yds: 11:23
  • 6th 500 yds: 11:41
  • 7th 500 yds: 11:43.5
  • 8th 500 yds: 11:45

Obviously the speeds slowed down for the later sets, but it was still a great accomplishment. :-)
