    No chance for Harris. He is allergic to chlorine. My swim block is finished so my existing time will have to stand. I have done my 12 sessions for the year. Time to ease off now to avoid burnout.

    3.57

    50 metre pool and stoked to be under the 4.00 in a long time for this distance.

    Goal for start of 10/11 season is to get it under 3.00

    We did 4x250m TTs this week at squad. It is amazing how much more you need to pace to swim that extra 50m. I was finishing them around 4 min flat. Doing just a straight 200 I went hard the whole way and only started hurting maybe the last 30m but the 250s hurt from 80m out and as a result the pacing strategy was very hard which showed up with the proportionately slower times. I think I was swimming the first 100 way too slow.
