Personal Worst for me this year, 4545. Recovering from a herniated disk that had me bedridden for four weeks, so I have a reason. But don't like it very much.
I was about to stop for some gatorade at about 3600, but then my friend who was doing it at the same time started swimming backward and I pulled back about 40 of the 80 yard lead he had on me in the space of a 200. So I didn't stop.
I never caught him but pushing through with what I had was one little nugget of positive that I will take with me to the next race.
Had some good swims on the squad I coach, so that was good as well.That's a heck of a swim considering what you have been through! :applaud: You may not like it very much, but you should be proud of yourself for what you accomplished. Having been through a laminectomy/discectomy of L5S1, I know what a herniated disc is like. Give yourself some credit. :agree:
