So I got the day off work today and I did my 500 length practice swim at Horwich Leisure Centre. I was quite exhausted afterwards actually but I knew this was due to not a lot of sleep (nerves) and carb loading the night before.

Even still, my 500 lengths pace was much quicker than the previous time I did the 500 lengths. I also noticed that it’s a lot warmer in the pool than I was used to at Manchester Aquatics Centre. An awesome swimmer who was swimming in my lane that I was speaking to told me that she also thought the same.

Still, I should be fine for next week 🙂
