Time was off because I jumped in the car and went to the pool. It was about 15-20 minutes before entering pool. I watched "The Triplets of Belleville" during my ride. One of the characters was training for the Tour de France.

I swam very well today. I am not sure if it was because I had yesterday off or I had my contacts on and I could see the pool? I also had Nicole swim with me! That was another bonus.
Nutrition
I woke up about 7:30 this morning. I wanted to make sure that I got plenty of sleep. When I woke up, I went straight to the kitchen. I made some eggs for my wife and I. I know I should be eating something different, but I have been doing well with eggs in the morning. I need to change this habit though because I know I will not have access to eggs before my half-ironman race in Florida. I still felt pretty hungry after the eggs. I kept walking back to the kitchen and searching for something to eat. I pull out 3 big chocolate chip mint cookies. My wife caught me and told me not to eat them. I grabbed an orange instead.
I had a GU about 10 minutes before my run. I had another GU about an hour later. I drank almost an entire water bottle full of gatorade and a quarter bottle full of water. I drank about 12 oz of HEED High Energy Electrolyte Drink (mandarin orange flavor) before the swim. I had some trail mix after the swim. I also drank another 4oz of the HEED drink.
I finished todays workout with ab 1:45 min nap. I drank a 16oz Black Cherry "Blox" energy drink as a bonus for such a hard workout.
