Two weeks of no swimming and zero motivation due to race DNS do not make for a great session.
What kind of goal can I set myself to get me through the next few months with triathlons likely off the cards for a while due to no running - Aquabikes can get in the bin
400m TT?
1km TT?
100 x 100m?
What time are you swimming 400m?
You are probably sub 6, right? But if not, race you to it…
Unfortunately I seem to be going backwards at the moment. Managed a 6m09 this morning and then held on for 12m38 at 800m, 15m55 at 1000m, 24m04 at 1500m.
Definite NO from me.
I remember Lucy Gossage getting her timing wrong one year at the 2nd lap of IM Wales & spectaularly dived into the trough of a wave.
Nearly broke her chuffing neck.
I’ll have a go on Wednesday
A big swim like Windamere?
Or River Dart 10km.
Yeah Chillswim do events for 3 of the lakes, Coniston, Ulswater and Windermere. Think the Windermere one sells out quite quickly. You can do it solo if you have someone who can drive the boat.
I did Consiton, that was a good event. Little bit nippy but not awful
Also some wonderful cycling around Bala.
Can’t make either of those…
I suppose I could do the Midnight Man Aquabike in August.
Ha ha, I remember that. Scary.
You smashed it, then came back for a 200 for good measure 
Also… that was lap 14??? 
To be fair I’d be lying if I said I didn’t think I could do under 6:00
100m reps a month of so ago were 1:29s
A better target I think will be 5:50
Thought I’d do a CSS test just for fun.
600m W/U
1km drills with fins/snorkel
Then the CSS test
Finished with 6 x 100m P&P off 1:45
Right, race you to it 
somewhat inspired by you planning to give it a go, I also jumped in the pool this morning.
Warmed up with a little run, and then 400 easy and 400 IM to wake the arms up. Then:
Gave it all I had though, complete splashfest, not sure where another 6 seconds will come from. But like they say, gotta have goals
*7 seconds 
Pair of sandbaggers here folks 
.
love it! Trash talk and everything
Just need @Chriswim to pitch up in a mask and gown and punch us all out of the ring with a 4m30 or something ridiculous, it’ll be like WWF
