100 easy swim down
This workout really gives me satisfaction. It is good solid anaerobic work and I am really exhausted afterwards. Had I done this workout in a long course (50m) pool would I probably now promise you a worldrecord this summer but no, sorry, it was swum in a 25m pool. Ok, outdoors without lane-ropes but if I keep this up it could be good anyway. Important is to keep the short rest in the breaststroke sets. And too keep a clean stroke. I try to swim as fast as I can but keeping the technique close to 100%. A good challenge. A fun workout. But not one I would do every day.
world record pace 2002
Jens Lutschin från öst tyska Leipzig slog Glen Christiansens 7 år gamla världs och europarekord på 50 meter bröstsim med 1/10 på Tyska Mastersmästerskapen på 50 meters bana i Magdeburg. Det nya rekordet lyder 30,31. På samma tävling sänkte Jens även Glens europarekord från 2002 på 100 bröst med 6/100 till 1.09,32.
Glen – ” Det glädjer mig verkligen att rekorden äntligen är slagna. Rekord är till för att slås inte för att hållas. Det här motiverar mig naturligtvis verkligen till att träna för att senast på VM i Göteborg nästa år slå ett nytt världsrekord i 50 klassen.”
65 åriga Monika Senftleben från Berlin slog även hon världrekord på 50 bröstsim med tiden 41,52.
Att Masters är stort i Tyskland kan man tydligt se på deltagar-antalet; 1421 deltagare från 310 föreningar gjorde 3892 individuella starter och 549 lagkappsstarter!
Många ”old-stars” som tex Peter Nocke (50) som vann 50 fritt, 50 fjäril och 100 fjäril. Peter Bermel (42) vann 200 medley överlägset på 2.13 och 100 rygg på nytt tyskt mastersrekord under 1.03. Jochen Bruha (40) sam 200 fritt på 1.59, 60 åriga Gerhard Schiller slog europarekord på 100 fritt med 1.01,03 och det gjorde även Helmut Richter 70 år, på 50 fjärilsim med tiden 33,49. Kanske inte lika imponerande men trots det världsrekord sam relativt okända Paul Alexander Kutcher (32 år)100 fritt på 51,24.
