How was your recovery? I felt like it was pretty quick for me (certainly compared with running ). Have you been swimming again yet?
Sorry for my slow reply!

My recovery was nothing. I was slightly sore the next day... but nothing more than what I had in training. Keep in mind that I did swim 3 miles, three times in the pool.

Even after the race we walked around for 6 hours. Yes, that wore me out. I had to down some Starbucks to not fall asleep on my feet. HA! It never crossed my bro-in-law's mind that I might be a bit tired after a 3 mile swim... HA! So he kept me busy all day. We left the race at 11:00 AM and didn't get home till 8:30 PM.!!!

I finally got in the pool after being off a week. I took last week off just to give myself a mental break from swimming. I got back in the water last night and I was happy to find my sprinting speed again!
