I'm feeling pretty good about my current strategy. Slowing down a little and thinking things out seems to be right thing.
I think I finally have a resource to help me with my swimming, and now I just need to patiently work through the drills. I'm not sure if I told you but it's a book and website called Swimsmooth. Check it out! For the first time ever I feel like I understand my limiters a lot better and that of course is where one must start. You can buy their book from Amazon in hard copy or electronically.
Same goes for the bike. The bit of time I have spent with the technical aspects of the trainer has quickly shown me where I'm lacking. It is blatantly obvious that I need to increase my cadence and improve my overall mechanics. All I normally ever do when I ride my bike, is ride my bike! I need to start incorporating specific drills that teach me "how" to ride my bike!
So like I said...cautiously optimistic...and at times even cautiously excited.
