I was REALLY tired Saturday and feeling run down like I'm getting sick.  Wanted to swim a little more, but cut it short due to how I was feeling.

Summary: I felt good about this week.  Got all five swims in and three were longer swims.  Still haven't incorporated any dryland in.  I think next week should probably be a recovery week.
