Surprise Time Trial

Check out how much faster my swimming times are getting. I’m more than 10 seconds faster on the 100m and maybe a minute faster on the 400m if you compare to the last time trial. For the 100m, I was 1:33 vs. 1:47, and for the 500m I was 9:35 vs. 400m @ 8:19. I bet I could have gone faster for the 500m, but I put it all out there for the 100m and didn’t feel quite recovered on the 500m. I also had trouble keeping track of how much I had already swum. I guess my ability to count lengths will get better as the swimming gets easier (i.e., less fatigue = better ability to count).
