Swimming again this morning. Same plan as last time, two 4x100's. This time I went to a different Y and there were far less people there. This Y has eight lanes and there were only two other people swimming. I also took an antihistamine before I left the house this time and it seem to help a lot. I didn't get the congestion I got last time. I was a little dizzy when I got out of the pool, but that could have been because I didn't have breakfast before I swam.
I did the two 4x100's with no problem this time. I rested 5-10 seconds between 100's and 1:30 between sets. Felt great. I was swimming about 1:15/lap (50 yards) and felt like I could have done 800 more yards at that pace. I think that should be about 11 minutes for 400 meters. I can probable shave a couple minutes off that by race time. I am shooting for 8 minutes.
I need to find a place to try some openwater swimming. I can go down to the river, but I need to find someone to follow me in a canoe or something in case I get tired.
