On the one hand, after a morning like this, I need a break from the swimming. The coach hammered us pretty good. On the other hand, I have five fingers.
Actually, on the other hand, I want to get right back at it, since this was my best swim for a while. It took a while to get into it, but once I did, everything clicked. During the warm-up, it really felt like my legs were dragging kind of low. It may just have been a dead feeling from last night's tempo run, but it wasn't good. But after we started the real sets, that sensation went away, and I was moving pretty good. I kept a good pace at a relaxed effort during out longer sets, then I put together one of my best sprint days on somewhat short rest. I was crushing times I did last year with twice as much rest, so we know something good is going on. I really hammered on the long strokes, and my triceps are definitely feeling it now. Good day.
