Today we were back with the original coach, and as such, back to the long sets. Lots of pulling, so I'm sure I will feel this later today and tomorrow. That's a good thing, I guess.
I'm astounded some days by how fast some of the others can swim. I've been working pretty hard, and usually lead the sets in my lane (although it's tough to judge how hard everyone else is going ... is my EZ their mod-hard, are they cruising behind my hard pace?), the lane next to us is so much faster. I don't know if I'll bridge the gap this year. Almost every time, they just fly past me, at least one every length. Today, during the fastest part of a set of descending 100s, I was able to hold, then pass, one of them, and as I stopped to rest, she did a flip turn and set off for her fastest 100. My "all-out" barely beat her "cruise". I can taste the humble pie. (Tastes like chlorine.)
