training: day thirty-two

i struggled through my swim workout today, which really bummed me out. if i can't handle 400 meters in a pool, how am I gonna handle 800m in open water. i guess i really need to work on the breathing/stroke stuff. i don't understand why all of a sudden, i've started to panic in the water.
i had the pool to myself again today. thank god, because i must look like a total dork when swimming.

training: nobody told me there'd be days like these.

a bad workout shouldn't make you cry, but it almost did. i'm so frustrated with the swimming and i am not even doing that much of it! i want to make sure that i can nail this, so that i can feel confident in the water, even if i am not fast.
