Pool Running!

5 min warmup/ cooldown
2 sets 1:30 hard, with 30sec easy

I actually did some running tonight - ok, so it was in the pool, but it still counts! Further to my complaining last week, I decided to hit the pool tonight and try to deep water run off some of this extra 'bubblewrap' that's sitting on my mid-regions.

I took the new aquatic belt with me tonight I bought from Rebel Sport.
It was a little awkward at first, but I soon got used to wearing it - I think I will need to buy a pair of one piece bathers, though, as it tends to ride up and cut into me a little, bu tI think I can get around that. I did a pretty good session tonight - a total of 36mins in the water! I managed to get my HRM up to 145, which is good! It's so much easier to run in the water with the belt - I can consistently get my HR up to a reasonable level, without swallowing too much water!

I'm even looking forward to tomorrow's session - I think it will be another evening one as the pool is so nice and quiet after 8pm!
