Boy did I feel terrible in the water today. I tried to find what felt like a sustainable pace… and there wasn’t one. It WAS hot… I’m hoping some of it was that. And after I got home and ate I felt way better, so maybe that was part of it. I ate pizza and breadstick and hero sandwich from Papa John’s last night – not the best choice. Replacing the hero with the leftover peas in the fridge would have been much more… wise. But I’ve got today and tomorrow to eat well. Although tonight is the swim team banquet, so I may not have much choice. Eating through swim season while coaching has been a big challenge. I don’t know how I would do it differently without going off my nut though!
Huge thanks to Coach John Roy and Coach Bescher of Wave. There is no way I’d be in as good a place as I am without them. I really, really appreciate everything they have done for me.
