I think I was feeling the effects of the sprint work last night, along with the inconsistent work outs lately, along with not drinking enough fluids, along with the pizza buffet I took my daughters to. Anyway I was tired and sore last night. It was hard to leave the bed this morning, but I got up and went to the Huntsville natatorium. Swam with Dave M, Peter, Dave B, Teresa and the Hsv group.
