In December 2019, my 1500 pool time was 28'54", which was more than 2 minutes drop from over 31 minutes in October. I attributed it to technique improvement from coaching, consistent interval training in the pool, and also the temperature drop as well.
Pool closed since February 2020 until mid-May, then mid-July to mid-September, then December to March again.
I timed again on 1st April. 26'49", i.e. another 2 minutes drop from pre-COVID despite pool temperature went up to 27°C already.
I can't explain how I dropped 2 minutes over the COVID year not being able to do interval training most of the year. Does anyone here else got similar improvement?
