Swimming and fitness

September 8th, 2008 mark Leave a comment Go to comments

I am just back from a long weekend in Arran and I took my running shoes with me - thinking I would do a good session whilst there. I didn’t….

… not because I got lazy or got pissed (I did get a little pissed on amazing mojitos) - but because they had a great pool. I decided to put into practice some of the swimming coaching I got 2 months ago. It was great - real power and strength being used. I now find swimming a really good alternative to running - but only because I have now been taught how to breathe properly and how to form my stroke better. It feels great and I would wholly recommend anyone to add this to their list of training options. Great for when you have niggles from running too.
