New stopwatch that does multiple splits. It has quite soft buttons which means it takes a few hundredths longer to stop the timer, which I feel is impacting my hand times. I might stick with my wrist watch when timing a single distance e.g. 30m and use the fancy stopwatch for split runs. I’m happy with 3.31 for 30m fly given I was 95% and accelerating off the bend.

The Speed Code – Week 4 Day 6 (core/mobility)
Pleased to progress through the second phase of the speed code core work. I’m trying to do the same for the speed work but I’m only dedicating one session a week to that. My times are coming along, I’ve been stuck at 4.40 for 30m for a while and it’s starting to drop to consistent 4.3’s.
My two options for July races are 11th and 19th. The one on the 11th is at a track I’ve raced on already and the 19th would be new to me. No preference yet, I’ll see how my training goes.
