Slammed but feeling good

Posted by Kevin Doak on Thursday at: 2:58am (May 29th, 2008)
I've been absolutely slammed with work, which forced me to take the day off yesterday from swimming. As it turns out, it was just what I needed. I was feeling really run down in practice for the last week or so. The day off let me recover and I felt incredible in the water today. I'm not kidding at all, I had this big dumb smile on my face as I was doing some descending 100's backstroke... I was hauling. It's a good reminder that although I'm trying to cram a lot of training in before trials, it's still beneficial to take a day off here and there to do a few practices in a semi rested state. I just live for that feeling of pulling a ton of water without being sore at all. It was a great practice!
