Another 1km in water
Decided to pop by Geylang East Swimming pool after work for a swim and to checkout the crowd in the evening....as expected...this ulu, difficult to reach place has much less swimmers than other pools...
so i tried 20 laps of breaststroke today......wow....i took a time of 26min 17sec..this was about 2 min off my freestyle.....hmmm....but breststroke is definitely more siong for long distance than freestyle because of all the popping up and down...more movement needed especially the legs.....did not time my 10laps split but i believe is definitely faster than the 2nd half.....felt very strain after about 12 rounds but managed to struggle thru and finish it.
hopefully can swim in coming 2-3 days.....keep this going for a month before i start to do brisk walking....
cheers..........
