The North Sydney 50m pool under the harbour bridge is probably one of three good pools in Sydney in my experience.
Luckily it’s at the halfway point on my jog to work.. It has been great to maintain a fairly level base fitness through jogging to and from work the past year. There have been a couple of days in there obviously when i couldn’t run where I have a change of clothes ready for an after work event etc.
Anyway, Saturday morning was absulutely bucketing down with rain which makes it so fun to swim in.
I am slowly increasing the distance through each swim. I remember a few years ago when I first started swimming at the USYD pool I barely made it to 20 laps. I have steadily been improving my speed and find I’m not leaving the pool until I have done a couple of km’s.
Swimming has always been my toughest leg. I really want to impove. I will continually post up times on my quest to do 1 minute 100’s.
