Mon. Apr. 3

I swam 4000 yd. Felt tired and am sort of low motivation now. I should be getting psyched, finally May is in sight, and I need to increase to 4500 yd this week. By May 13, I should be at 6200, the max. Then- the taper. Guess I need to keep my goals in sight and not get discouraged now. I have to spend so long in the water. Today I walked Sadie and it was such a revelation to be above ground and seeing things. I'm not complaining- I chose to do this. I'm a little worried about some feeling of overextension in my back like right under my shoulder blades. Could be I'm not rotating enough and reaching too far. Also must watch the over reach when pushing off at each flip turn.
