Day 20, Week 3, Short [2200y]

Cold this morning, windchills in 20s.  Decided to jumble my schedule and swam today.  More like 30s tomorrow, so do 7M run tomorrow.  Swim was not bad.  I tried a stroke rhythm 2 on one side, then 2 on the other.  At times it felt really good, but learning a new rhythm takes concentration and extra effort so somewhere around 14 or 1500 yds, I switched back to normal rhythm. For the 600-800 yd interval, my time was about 5 minutes, but up until then the 200 yd paces had been more like 4:20 or 4:30.  And after then, went back.  Since my time was extra by about 30-40 seconds, I can't account for it by miscounting laps.  I was 18:30 at 800 yds. At 600 yds I was about 13:06 and would've expected a nominal time around 17:36.  If it was really 850 yds, then time at 800 yds would've been like 17:25 for a 4:09 200 yds pace or about 2:05 100 yds pace which I guess it could be actually. Yeah, I think that is more likely, then losing 30-40 seconds.  So, I'll go update my records. I'm glad I thought that out.
