How much faster in a wetsuit – part 3

I’ve had a couple of swims in my wetsuit over the last two weeks to make sure it is still ok.  It was.  And I swim faster with it. Much faster.

I did 1,500m in 24:46 without, working hard, being paced by someone in the next lane.  Then the next week I did it in 22:14 but pacing myself.  That’s 152s quicker.  Just over 10s per 100m quicker with the wetsuit.

I also had a go at a fast 100m.  1:24 first.  Next week 1:14 in a wetsuit.  Again 10s per 100m quicker again.

This ties in with what I thought last year. Then I thought I was 40s per 400m quicker.  I still do.
