Maybe it has something to do with the feeling.

On Wednesday I swam the 100 Fly at YNATS, and I wasn't really expecting much.  I've been struggling with that race forever, so I just thought to myself, 1:05 will be good enough today, please a 1:05 (my best time was 1:01.53).  As I was warming up I was feeling better, and I swam the 50 earlier and it felt nice.  I thought "Hey, maybe I can do this.  Maybe this pool is fast.  Maybe I'll pull something out."  So as I'm swimming my race I finish the first 50 and I'm feeling good, I'm usually pretty tired by this point.  I reach the last 25 and I'm still up with everybody else.  When I finish the race I look up at the scoreboard, 1:01.37.  Killer.  Maybe it had something to do with the pool, probably a lot to do with the fact I'm not anemic anymore, but maybe it had something to do with the feeling.  Feeling good, and feeling fast.  Whatever it was, I liked it.

P.S. I'll write about my Harry Potter Adventures next week.
