Comment: The surprise today was that I did not feel strong for the main set. The warmup, kicking and especially the sprints felt good, but I just slogged through the 150's. I felt no "pop" at all. I should be able to go 150's free in around 1:50; today they were all a bit over 2:00. I just could not get going. I didn't fade, really, just could not swim fast or feel strong. Maybe it's just one of those days when I feel blah for no reason, but maybe a result of a very hard practice on Monday.
