Tales of the Cement Pond

We went swimming this morning.  I swam farther in one circuit than I have ever swam before (250 yards) but after that, my legs were shot.  I'm not exactly sure why they were so tired this morning.  It could be because adequate sleep hasn't exactly been my forte this week.  I swam a little more after the long swim, but not very fast and usually not freestyle.  On one hand, I'm glad I was able to swim farther, but on the other, I'm disappointed that I couldn't continue to swim very well after that.  Baby steps I guess.
