Paying dearly for the long weekend

So last Friday I slept in and didn't get my swim in, and Friday/Saturday went on a winter camp with the scouts.  So I had three days of rest.  That was a little too much as this morning's swim was BLAH!  Not to mention that when I got to the parking lot of the pool, I couldn't find my green duffle bag with all my swimming stuff.  Cathi must have taken it out to make room for some kids.  Good thing I have a backup bag with spare suits and goggles hidden in the trunk!

Got in the water at 5:08am:
3000 yards straight.  David Balling was in the next lane cruising!  He was doing 500's I think.  Just enough distance to lap me once.  But then I'd keep going and he'd start back up when I was back at the wall.  Today's swim felt "wavy".  Even though there were lane lines in, it sure didn't feel like it.  I hate swimming without ear plugs now. I guess that is now a crutch.  It just seems so noisy.  Need to track down my bag before tomorrow.

Then swam with masters:

600 - 300 swim, 150 kick, 150 touch and pull
2000 - 5 x 400's
1st set - 400 pull easy, 2nd set - 4 x 100's on 1:30, 3rd - 400 pull, 4th - 400 kick, 5th - 8 x 50's :05 ri 
600 - 6 x 100's IM on 1:45
300 - 6 x 50's fly on 1:15
500 easy

Then moved on to:
2000 pull

9000 yards total
