Felt good today going into the swim. Wasn't sure what I wanted to do after warming up so I winged it and went with a descending ladder. The hard 400 is the longest hard effort I've had in awhile and I could tell. My form held throughout that but half into the 300 it started to diminish. The 200 was tough but I pushed through and used the 100k after as a good rest for the final 100 which felt strong. While doing the 50s I realized I need to work on cupping my hands. Once that changed the strokes felt even stronger, like I was getting "more for my money." Overall the swim felt strong even though I have a cold that will not go away. Felt like I was hacking up a lung when trying to breath...
