The U.S. team has been in Manchester a couple days now. We are all settled into the hotel and have been adjusting to the time difference. I have been having a little harder time than usual. I’ve been really tired and I keep falling asleep. I was reading a book this morning and the next thing I knew my roommate came in from his morning swim. I then proceeded to take an hour nap while he went to the team room to use his computer. That was after getting about 10 hours of sleep last night and not swimming this morning.

We are two days out from the start of the meet and I’m planning on getting out and seeing Manchester a little today. This is probably my last opportunity to do so. I wouldn’t really want to walk around too much the day before I race. Despite my sleepiness I have felt good in the pool. Whenever I get in I feel like I’m ready to race. I’m just still behind on sleep after the trip. There is plenty of time to catch up still before the meet starts.
