Swim 1.2 km

New record today, 500m with no stopping all on front crawl.

A big muscly fast guy tried to play silly bananas with me today by over taking just before the turn and diving to the depths of the pool and swimming along the bottom before surfacing. Presumably, he assumed he would be miles ahead of me when he surfaced, but I had swum as fast as I possibly could so as he surfaced I gave him the slap of shame on the ankle. I think that 50m he did after that must have been one of the fastest I have ever seen.

Speaking of ankles, my left one is playing up. Mix of achillies tendonitis and an urge to crack the bones. Need to be careful of that and my provide the excuse to skip reps this friday.....
