Day 2 - Back from the dead swim

I dragged myself out again this morning. Rubbed my eyes to make sure they were actually open since I could see nothing. I made it to the pool to the shock of my coach who thought I might have wussed out already. Even more surprised were those people who didn’t know I’d been there last week. They looked like they’d seen a ghost. 

Progress was made. I swam even more than last time though my mind went blurry trying to keep count. I suspect I did about 1200m this time. My timed swim was a bit worse than last time but since i had done more distance I didn’t worry about it. I was exhausted by the end of it but my strokes are looking good. Apparently I “look good for an old-timer”.

Mentally I feel alive and awake though I know my body will crash in a few hours. Trying to see if I can make it to 5pm at the office. Two days down, so many more to go.
