Got up in the middle of the night, couldn't sleep, so I went down and ate some cereal and watched TV. Was able to get back to sleep after that, slept until after 6:30, then got up and got ready for a swim at the WWC. No Avi this time. It had rained during the night. No rain on the way over or during the swim, it was just cloudy and overcast. I was intentional about keeping my first 500 pace going for the second 500, was generally successful. Swam the last 500 with a pull buoy and the swim pads, again focusing on powerful, full strokes all the way through the water. I had to pause several times during the workout to adjust my goggles, which kept filling with water. Here are the times for the three 500s: 9:28, 9:33, 9:08, total swimming time of 28:09. Throughout the workout I tried to keep my arms moving more, not so much gliding.
Avg pace = 1:53/100 yds (Video, not counting pause between third and fourth 500)
Total distance = 1500 yds
Elapsed moving time = 28:09 (Video)
Avg heartrate = 173 bpm (Zepp, not to be believed)
Relative Effort = 95 (not to be believed)
SWOLF = 37
Avg stroke rate = 22 bpm
Avg pull distance = 2.26 yds (helped by last 500)
In the afternoon, I changed out some of the batteries on our home alarm sensors and ordered some new batteries. I also talked myself into a run down to the park and back, following the standard 5k route and walking the last block home. Ran negative splits for the first three miles. My right leg was a little tender at the beginning but seemed to loosen up with time. Got sprinkled on a bit but no heavy rain. My shoes and socks were thoroughly wet by the end of the run, and that was uncomfortable but not greatly so.
Avg pace = 8:08/mi
Total distance = 3.17 mi
Elapsed moving time = 25:47
Avg heartrate = 132 bpm (Coospo)
Relative Effort =11

After the run, I did some work on the computer. Had a little nap and read for a while as well. I watched a little NBA before dinner and some TV afterward before turning in.
I started reading Empire of AI, by Karen Hao. It's biased toward the anti view but so far is doing a decent job of describing the origins of OpenAI.
