Hit the wall today in practice. Do you eat before you go.

WOW I am tired. I hit the wall early in practice today but kept plugging along. I am a 41 year old female who has been out of the water for 22 years ( competitivley). I have been told that is common and it will get better. How long to build up ones endurance and when does it get easier, though I know you will always have to push yourself. I just see some of the longterm swimmers glidding through the water like it is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo easy. I must admit I am swimming much better than I thought I would be for how long it has been. I am swimming at 5:30 am. Do you eat before you go? and if so what. I also have a bit of a lower calf cramp. Tomorrows practice should be something :thhbbb:. But I am determined to do this. I need to get in shape lose some weight and just really love the swimming. SIGH Katie

    Alison I will let you know what I think of her suits. I just hope the sizing is okay. I am excited about it. I should get it by next week. That is wonderful that she swims herself so she understands what we need Take care Have a wonderful weekend Slowswim. I am the opposite. I am exhausted by 10 pm. Though it is taking some getting used to with these early morning swims and work and kids and life. BUT this week was better than last week Katie
