Sentosa Swim&Running Training [A2.トライアスロン(自転車・スイム)]
Yesterday my friends told me OSIM triathron had swimming entry qualification test . They told me that the required time to swim 1.5km was 45mins. This depressed me greatly because my target for this race was just to compete and complete. I was hoping to do the swimming stage in around an hour.
So you can see why I was checking the rule on the internet last night. Luckily the qualification time was 55 mins, not 45mins. That is encouraging because I think that with a lot of swimming practice I should be able to acheive that time. Of cource there is the added challenge of swimming in the sea, which takes more time.
So I turned to a professional swimmer- one of my team colleagues- to help. We went to Sentosa beach with another friend.
According to him, I mustn't "nod" while swimming. My back, neck and head should remain in a straight line thoughout and keep time to end up my stroke . I will stick with the breathstroke style.I also have to strengthen my triceps.
After that, we swam 1.3km and ran 8km on the uphill for 3.5 hours.
Anyway,Thursday - 5.6km Running race, Friday - 3.5hours (49km) bike training and Today - Sentosa open water training 1.3km & 8km uphill run.
Exhausted...
