Watched my swim video - eep plenty to work on - slap my right hand into water palm facing up, arms all over the place, no strength in my catch, end of my stroke no power either. However I do kick more than I thought :)

S&C on the common with James LRR as usual brilliant although I am strawberry flavoured to the midges and was bitten to death. I have some amazing bites on my leg :( HIT training. Tough but fun)

Didn't run Wednesday - instead cycled over to Suzanne's 9 miles about 45mins. Lift to Robs to get tri club kit, then chilli and showed the dvd of my swim. Great discussion on my technique.
