My swim sucked on Monday. There's no nice way to say it. It just sucked. Usually when I swim I can get into a rhythym. I get to a place where I'm comfortable and feel like I could just keep swimming. That never happened. My form was off and no matter what I did to try to correct it, it wasn't happening. Which brings me to my dilemma:
When having a bad swim, do I:
A. Just keep swimming. I could have a day like that in a race and I should get used to pushing through it. OR
B. End the workout. Swimming with bad form just reinforces bad form.
I can see pros and cons to both scenarios. It may be a question of what point of the season I'm at. It may not matter at my level. I don't swim very well anyway. I just started swimming laps in November and I'm really slow.
Anyway, thanks for reading as I "think out loud". If you have any opinions, advice or just want to say "yeah, that happens to me, too", please leave a comment.
