I was pleasantly surprised that I was faster than I was in early December (1:55.30), and that swim was coming off a taper (I still had almost no hair growth back) and had that "smooth, easy speed" feel still lingering. The big difference, in hindsight, was definitely my mental effort in the race. In December, I was in the mix with some of the senior level boys and they went out so fast and I got caught up in THEIR race and just spun my wheels. This time I was more controlled on the opening 75 yards, and while I flipped last at the 50, by the 100, I was in second place for good in my heat. 600 EZ (100 swim/100 kick w/ BD) w/ SNKL Total: 2600

Coming off being sick, heavy training, and heavy lifting, this was a tough race to try to contest. I didn't have any sort of goal time in mind, although I would have liked to have had my BK split under 1:10 and my FR split under 1:00, but my legs were just so heavy. 600 EZ (100 swim/100 kick w/ BD) w/ SNKL Total: 3400 SHOUT OUT: Trip swam a very respectable 5:37 500 FR as well.
