I am wondering if anyone has noticed a correlation between type of workout and what kind of mood they are in afterward. Sometimes when we get over-the-top kick sets I end up feeling totally drained, and not in a good way. Often when we do a sprint oriented workout I feel really pumped afterward, even if I got nauseous while swimming. After a long slow distance workout I'll be totally exhausted, but in a good way. Sometimes I'm so tired I can barely lift my arms to shampoo my hair but I feel great, last night I just wanted to be put out of my misery.
Do you find that certain types of workouts put you in certain types of moods?

Depending upon the pain level, I'll resort to swimming some 50's and 100's with some rest to regenerate my ATP supplies when things get ugly. If its minor discomfort I'll just push on through but sometimes you have to know when to say when. When my arms are ready to fall off and my heart rate is through the roof, pushing on is probably not in my best interest.
I push on through pretty much anything but cramps...I hate cramps.
then again I'm training solo...maybe a coach would make me cry...
