I really wanted to go for a long run this past weekend, but I needed to get some car repair work done, and it was the kind of thing that once started, it had to be finished.
So I was somewhat upset at the sequence of events, but for the sake of doing something, I did some time in the endless pool.
Previously, I had been setting the power to 40, and I've found that after a couple minutes, the power always seems to go down by about 5 - so I'd end with the power set to 35.  This time I tried things out by bringing the power up to 50.  It settled down to 45 before too long, but the counter current was significantly faster.  I used this opportunity to start working on my form, trying to find ways to make it more efficient.
Lap 1: 4:47  avg HR 128  power setting 35
Lap 2: 17:19  avg HR 157  power setting 45
Lap 3: 1:30 rest
Lap 4: 4:48  avg HR 126  power setting 45
