Last full day of practice before taper

I did 4,500 yards today after taking Sunday off to rest. I still felt pretty worn down in the water during practice. I also did a brief dryland and weight set this evening, the last one before the meet. I'm confident most swimmers don't do weights this close to a big meet. I just feel like trying out a very short taper. I descended some 100's backstroke today down to a :56. Nothing spectacular but it felt pretty smooth. I also did some test freestyle and butterfly starts.

I will only do no more than 4,000 yards tomorrow and decrease 1,000 yards a day till Saturday. I'm excited to race this weekend!
