I usually update the weeks work, but last week was a recovery week so, no need. Going into the recovery week I felt great and didn't think I need any downtime. But once the week started, I was wiped. I had to travel quite a bit, so it worked out well.
I had a coached training on Sunday and I think it went well. I was lapping people in my swim lane that were equal to me if not better a year ago. I should have been in the fastest lane, but I didn't know if I was ready. Next training I am heading to the fastest lane to push myself.
In February I am going to start swimming in Masters. I am pretty intimidated by the swim group there, but it will make me faster. After a couple sessions the intimidation should pass and it will no longer be a mental struggle to get there.
My swim yesterday was pretty tough. I kept wanting to cut it short, but I made myself stay mentally strong and go for the whole time. Its crazy, mental toughness is truly the hardest part. If the mind commits, the body will follow..
