The Dream-Day 52

Good week of training thus far. Tuesday was a hellacious bike ride on my trainer where I re-enacted the now famous chalk outline pose from last week. Yesterday, I did 7 quick 1/2 mile run intervals where each effort was followed by a light jog. Today, left my place at 5:30am and joined several other crazies for a 6:30am open water swim.

The course was set up in a large rectangle 100 meters x 150 meters. We swim independently and did as much or as little as we wanted. Yours truly came out last (I know, shocking). Actually, they were collecting the buoys when I was 1/2 way into lap #6. F'ers. Anyway, my goals was to do 2,000 meters and I did 2,700 meters (1.7 miles). This afternoon, I owe a bike ride and a chest and back workout.

A few pics from this morning.

Post swim. I know, it's hard not to get fixated on the gay Tri top or the crooked googles.
