How embarrassed do you feel for getting out before the workout is over if you don't feel well? This evening, I was at practice for my new team and I was swimming so poorly that I got bumped down a lane. Then, I began to feel even worse, so finally I just got out at one hour and went home. Now that I feel a bit better, I'm totally mortified for not finishing. Extenuating circumstance: I'm new to this team and am very slow compared to them--normally I swim in lane 2. So I'm always a little embarassed jsut for being slow.
If this was age group swimming, my coach would have said puke in the gutters and keep swimming. Since this is masters, you did fine. If you don't feel good/right, then certainly do what you need to do. When you get to feeling better just go back and work your way up a lane or two. It takes time but you'll get there!
