Subject: It's true-what they say about wetsuits News Flash!!!
Wetsuits really do make you faster!!!!!
Today, I swam for the first time in my brand spankin new wet suit and I was crazy fast. At first I thought I may have miscounted laps, but I know for sure that I didn't.
Before I began my main set this morning without my wetsuit, I swam 500 yards with the wetsuit on. I swam those 500 yards in 8:52 (1:46/100yds ). Before today, the fastest pace I ever had was 2:10/100yds.
In my first tri, I swam 800 yds in 21:09, according to my new numbers with the wetsuit and all of the training I have done, it would be more like 15:00 minutes. I can't wait for my tri season to start... |
