Thanks Goody for the joint swim! It was nice to do this long swim with a friend nearby. |
The 5 x 200's on the coming down portion where I swam free I was holding 2:35 on the 200s and was feeling really good.
In many 10 mile pool swims in the past I would often struggle either with energy, or pain. Had no issues at all today which was awesome! Felt great the whole time!
Glad I had Goody to swim with. Today's swim seemed to go by really fast and I never got bored mentally. What a fun workout!!!!
Now to take the kids to see a matinee movie. Happy President's day!
