Swim caps are the shiznit!!
I bought my first swim cap last week and finally got a chance to use it today.  Wow.  What a difference it makes.  I didn't think it would be that big of a deal, but it really helps.  Not only does it keep me more aerodynamic through the water, but since it covers my ears, I don't get any water in them (not really anyway).  I felt like I actually swam better today because of the cap.
All I did was swim today.  I did 3 x 300 yards and then a few 100 yard repeats.  I was very pleased to do the 300 yards repeats.  I can swim 300 yards in about 6:30.  I know, I know.  Not fast.  But, at least I can swim it.
I didn't do any biking or running today as my legs are very sore.  I don't really know why, but they hurt like hell.  I did finish Saturday's half 10 seconds faster than I finished the Cinci Half.  And, I walked about a half mile on Saturday during the race.  I guess I was pushing it pretty hard and my legs are telling me about it :)
Tomorrow I intend to work out some of the lactic acid.  I have a day of biking 20 and running 5.
Woot!
