Day 071 - Open water swimming, encore
45-minute overdistance swim (level 1)
|
SWIM FOR 45 MINUTES AT LEVEL 1 INTENSITY (60-70% of MHR): If you live near a lake, ocean, or other navigable body of water, we're going to try another open water swim today. Swim parallel to shore, and use a wetsuit if the water is below 72 degrees. Lift your head to sight every six to eight strokes to keep on course. Swim for what seems like 20 minutes and check your watch -- you've probably gone about 2 minutes. Keep going until you've managed to stay in the water for 45 minutes. If you don't live near a good body of water, do this workout in the pool.
