Yesterday took a fair bit out of me, more than I would have expected for a short race. But I guess I suffered a bit of a bonk, so last night was spent in the "atheticoma". (I love that expression.) When I got to pool this morning I didn't expect too much, and once the coach saw the fading number tattoo on my arm, he asked, "You're taking it easy today?" And I replied, "I don't know how easy it will be, but at least it will be slow." And with that, my day got shortened ass I was excused from the speedwork at the end of the session.
I actually felt good for the first 75% of the workout, holding nice steady paces, and working well through the paddle sets. But on the second longer set I could feel the fatigue catching up and form started to falter, so it was a good idea to call it a day. I still got 2600m worth of work, so no complaints.
Then I went for a quick easy run at work. Legs felt pretty good, no stiffness, but another hot humid afternoon was an ugly reminder of yesterday.
