SWIM: 37 mins and 1600
In a first-ever event, I went back to the pool in the evening to finish my swim! WHOOP!
It didn't feel too great, I wasn't able to recapture the awesome form from this morning, but this was a victory nonetheless.
I usually don't swim the late afternoons, so I only vaguely know the schedule. There were 2 lap lanes and 3 swimmers in each. Both lanes had a mix of lappers, sort-of-lappers, and people who maybe should have been in the rec area floating around. I asked the lifeguard if another lane might open soon and she said instead that a lane was closing in 30 mins! Then to my luck, one of the lappers finished just then. A few mins later, a sort-of-lapper from the same lane finished (the old asian guy who circle swims the middle of the lane) and WHOOP it all worked out in the end.
I did an 8x50 WU trying to find that form, then restarted the last 12 100's I didn't finish this morning. I started off OK, but quickly enough (at about the 6th one) I started to seriously slow down. I was doing 2:05 ish 100's. So I grabbed the pull buoy, slowed down, and focused on form instead of finish.
Much better Whole30 dinner tonight -- I stopped after dinner with no nomming.
