maybe rest/recovery weeks do work for my swimming. i have noticed this before, after an extended absence from the pool my skin feels much more sensitive to the water and i figure more form stuff out. the set was 3x(10x100) on a sendoff, on the last set of 10 i dropped the sendoff by 5 seconds for a challenge. it was hard but i put all of my frustration from yesterdays run into those 100s and made every one.

MAF at super-secret SLU track, which is actually nice despite being in the hood. my run was not nice. seems my body does not understand rest week is supposed to reduce fatigue and make you faster. my splits were the slowest all year. made it really tough to keep motivated. but, it's done. onwards.

some easy spinning on the trainer.

5x800 at the Clayton track. felt pretty sluggish during WU but found an old crappy soccer ball so kicked that around for a while...wow i have lost any skill i once had! but the repeats went fine.

flop in the pool. mega crowded, got to turn the tables on PBCSO guy and make HIM circle swim. then he got in a fight with the other dude sharing the lane. drama!

need it!
