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???

Randy wins the prize. Good catch on Eric, he has swam Masters with us for many years. He put in a 49 second 100 meter free (SCM) a couple of years. Now that was impressive.
