Maybe I was too tired

I've gotten up and gone to swimming after almost all of my races. I like splashing around, it helps work out any kinks, promotes good recovery, and it's not like I can't use the practice. I felt pretty good this morning, and the workout didn't look too tough, so I followed the plan. But I guess my muscles were more tired than I thought. I was never able to feel really good about my stroke, felt kind of sloppy, and now a few hours later I think I tweaked my elbow. That's just it works sometimes, eh? It's a bit inflamed, so I'll take an NSAID tonight and rest it up, and should be good again on Wednesday.

Swim: w/u - 200m each free, non-free, pull
4x300, 30" (1: IM opener pace, 2: ez pull, 3: IM pace, 4: ez pull)
3x400, 1' (1: free as 100 hard/100 ez, 2: free as 75 ez/25 sprint, 3: 200 ez pull/200 ez non-free)
Total: 3000m

Run: 2.5 miles, ez
