What are your thoughts on this. Had a great week in practice. Great times in repeats. Did a 400scm time trial on Friday and was within 6 seconds of my meet time in the 400!! Felt great. Had a meet today (Sunday) and my 500 free, (the only event I swam) was 10 seconds slower than I think it should have been. Twelve seconds slower than my best time at last years nationals.
I am usually at my best when I swim the first event of the day. The 500 was the last event. I did not arrive at the pool until 1:00 and swam at 4:30. I ate my regular breakfast and lunch and kept hydrated.
So, chalk it up to experience?, bad body rhythms, not enough food? What say you???

I find that this time of the year is the hardest for me too. I have allergies and asthma and even though I'm in my best shape in a long time, but I still have difficulty breathing and performing to my best this time of year due to all the allergens.
