In your first workout after a multi-day meet...

taking a nice, slowww, recovery swim. :agree:

Relays! Day 2, however, I feel like C***!

complete dog-crap, particularly so because I love to end a multi-day meet by NOT warming down ... so I can enjoy the lovely lactic acid burn for a few more days ;)

complete dog-crap, particularly so because I love to end a multi-day meet by NOT warming down ... so I can enjoy the lovely lactic acid burn for a few more days ;) I always say "cool down on Monday morning". I still haven't swam since this last weekend's meet, so it'll be fun whenever that may be.

if I really hit my taper, then I will still feel like racing after the meet. Once I go fully into thorobred mode (which, regrettably, doesn't always happen when I taper) it's actually difficult to get back into donkey mode.

Dancing.

Loving this! Seems like most of us react the same way.:notworking:

putting on a flower-petal-covered bathing cap and swimming super slow and floppy.
