[General] I felt energetic today; I swam 1100 meters.

This afternoon I went to gym pool. I felt full of energy and I swam 1100 meters. I usually swim only 500 meters. I wrote a sentence to express the idea:

I felt energetic today; I swam 1100 meters.

Is the italic sentence natural?

Yes, it is.

I was full of beans today.

That would explain the extra burst of speed in the pool! ;-)

With your "wind-assisted", Rover, I get it too. It's a very good play of words! I live and learn!
