I've been running for about 10 years. I'm pretty consistent on my times. I run the same paths, at the same pace for about 5 years. I do about 9:15 per mile, which is a pace that I feel I could run forever at.
Last year I started swimming. I could barely do two laps before I was out of breath.
I started following the TI swim books for the last three months, and I swear I can swim for 2000m strait! It's not a fast swim, but I am amazed. It's like things have changed overnight.
I've noticed something else though.
My running times have changed from 9:15 per mile to 8:30 per mile. I haven't changed my running stye, and I'm not trying harder. It's just faster!
It's cooler now, and that may have something to do with it, but not that much.
Does my increasing endurance in swimming, increase my running time?
Would love to hear your thoughts.
