Ok, here's my background. I'm, training for USMS NATS in Washignton. Training has been going well and I've been pleased with my meet performances thus far. However, I just swam a meet yesterday as my last meet before I taper for nats. Well, to ensure a good meet I rested two days prior, something I never do going into a meet. At the meet I swam a half a second slower in all my 50's and a full second slower in my 100 fly based on all previous meets. I actually swam A 100 fly in practice last week that was much faster then my race at this meet.
I don't understand, I should have swum faster then other meets this year because I rested going into it. Other meets I swam a hard workout the night before. Could anyone please share any insight into this phenomenon. I have now suffered a huge blow to my confidence going into nationals.

I think your right Nelson I should have passed on this meet. Thank you all for your input. I'm going to take your advice and just forget this meet ever happened and just focus on Washington.
Thanks again,
