BIKE: ~30 miles in 1:40
SWIM: 1500y in 45 mins
The bike was uninspired. I again rode indoors to keep the pace under control and attempt to recover more completely. I'm still suffering from Saturday's ovenfest.
The swim however, was memorable--I did 3 laps of bilateral breathing! It was the Yclass, and the instruction sheet specified 12 50's as kick/drill/swim. While using the kickboard, I had an idea. Use the kickboard to practice rotating during the drill part, and use that to learn to rotate to the left for breathing. This is probably a drill I read somewhere, I'm not claiming to have made it up. It worked! It wasn't smooth or natural yet, but if I keep working on it, it will get better. My regular breathing wasn't smooth when I started it either.
