Not picture perfect

I guess I was kind of tired after yesterday. Not only was it the first race of the year, but after I got home I spent a couple of hours doing yard work. That took more out of me than I expected. I felt OK when I got up, dragging a bit, but it's a Monday at 5am, what do you want? However when I hit the pool, things were ugly.

Right from warm-up, I was just flailing in the water. Nothing felt in sync, I was swallowing as much water as I was pushing, and I was slow. Then we stopped from team photos. After the few minutes break, it was back in the pool to continue flailing for another 45 minutes. I was lucky that it was a fairly short workout today. I can't imagine this feeling will hang around too long, and I should be fine by Wednesday.
