Masters swim tonight, I was kind of dragging on the way over. I was very tired all day. Genine was so tired she didn't go with me.
After warming up 300m, Shaun and I had a 100,200,300,400,300,200,100 as our first set. Turns out tonight is one of those nights where I have good balance, timing and energy. I can only hope it's because the adjustments from my lessons are sinking in.
Then 300 m of easy/kick/easy
After that we had 600m of drills
Then 4x50 race with :45 rest (Shaun crushed these) My best was probably :48.
100 cd
3100m of what has been one of my best feeling swims in a long time. I really hope that it wasn't just a fluke. When I'm swimming this well, it really makes me want to swim more because it feels like progress is being made. Swimming can become tedious if you don't have something specific you are trying to improve.

I have been in a Master's Class for about 2 months now, and it has totally changed the way I train. The only problem is that while my times seems to be getting faster, everyone else in the group is also getting faster so I am still the slow one! lol
JF: Some might argue that it's better to be the slowest than the fastest in terms of motivation to train.
Also it's kind of funny, looking back at my race swim results from the last few years, my average pace is almost exactly the same. The difference is I was wiped out after the swim in those early races. Now I'm more efficient and I'm getting out of the water feeling great.
