Its 6am in Texas, air temp 80F water even warmer.....
What is the best way to train for a 200 free under these conditions?
Yesterday I intended to swim 6 x 200m on 3.15 to check how my endurance was, but the heat took over so I tucked some backstroke recovery in there to cool off.
For tomorrow I was planning some broken 200s, but now doubt I'll manage 4 or 5 in a row, should I just do the same and slot in some backstroke recovery? Perhaps lose the cap and take an extra drink? Any ideas?
And before anyone suggests I swim the 50 free instead, I will be swimming that too this week. I would much rather be doing a 400m though.
