Slow down

After blowing up spectacularly this weekend, I need to swim under control, so I'm dedicating two weeks of swimming as slowly as I can. No sprints, not even really hard efforts. I need to make all this manageable, or 2000m in two weeks will be the end of me. So that was my goal today. If the coach was paying attention, I would have been corrected for my slow turnover, and extra-long glide, but I got away with it. I tried to seed myself at the end of the lane, where my slowitude wouldn't affect everyone else. Things went well, considering I could tell I was tired from yesterday. I talked with some people about the race, and got some small pieces of advice for in the future. These are the types of things I enjoy about the group. The support is great, from the coaches and other swimmers. I got very lucky in finding this club.
