For those who don&#8217;t know, you basically swim as far and fast as you can for 30 minutes and record how far you swum to work out your &#8220;threshold pace&#8221; for swimming. This allows you to estimate race times and more importantly set relevant training objectives (ie: doing repeats of a few training lengths at a pace faster than threshold).<\/p>\n<p>Well it started off well and I got 21 minutes in to be told &#8220;its time for the women only session now so please leave&#8221;. Sigh. So no full result.<\/p>\n<p>I did record 1050m in 22:26.8 though which gives an average pace of 2:08.3\/100m or a speed of 46.77m\/min.
