Pyramid Swim.

Felt tired this morning but was keen to get my 2nd swim of the week out the way so ventured down to Vic on the Park at Broadway Pool. So it was there i hit and decided on the 'Pyramid' session that works 1,2,3,4, 4,3,2,100s going every 2, 4, 6 and 8 mins.
Struggled from the start and as early as the first 300 i was thinking of pulling the pin, i know i am a poor swimmer but this pool is definitely a lot slower then say the A.B.C Pool - kept with it though, although my breaks were getting shorter. The last 600m (3s, 2s and 100) were torture with the last 100 labouring with a 1.53.
Had planned to do a couple of laps of drills that Pete Walker was helping me with, but was stuffed by the end of 2ks and that idea went out the window at about the 600mtr mark :)

Just had a crook Kanser on the phone again (honest) still undecided on his latest Marathon and if to do or not. Thinks his chances of a 2.41 are gone but is confident he can easily do a 2.48? That in turn brought Enda into play who said he has no chance of getting near that? ..........this left Enda last seen clearing out his desk and heading to find a new job, after given his marching orders out the door:)

Will try to get out in the morning for my run as i have a big afternoon/evening on Saturday out celebrating with those less fortunate then us English. It's our poor cousins from over the water, St Pats Day for our Irish friends so will be hitting the town for a few drinks. Will be starting in the Trinity Bar Surry Hills if anyone is around.
On Sunday it is the Parade in the City and i believe Enda is going for his Aussie Citizenship and getting his other half of his brain removed...........should be a fun day out.

Also noticed Clyde has been posting, only waited about 4 years for him to have a decent run. Kanser tells me he is training hard and that he is going to try to win the 'Clydesdale' Division (over 90 kilos) at Melbourne Ironman. Well with a bit of extra work on the chocolates and Hot X Buns it wont be a problem for our Kiwi friend.
Still waiting for my winning bet from him at Husky to be paid, where i spanked his ar$e in a triathlon of scratch:)

Have a good weekend, and early next week i will give the rundown and Tom's chances in the Biathlon for Thursday in the big SHOW DOWN :)

Cheers

Finally: England vs Ireland in the 6 Nations this week, and Enda just been on the blower, wants $20 bet and i have to give him 1.5 points start, (and this after they have won the past 7 wins out of 10 against us?)
OK bet taken :)
