OPEN WATER SWIM - AGAIN!!!

So, it's like this....I finally get used to the lake, swimming in the lake, the weeds, the smell, the not feeling myself breathing, the wetsuit, etc....and what happens - the Town closes the beach to treat for weeds. Not that I'm eager to jump into some kind of chemical dumping ground mind you because those weeds are quite hearty but - I had to go back to the pool - and much to my surprise, I hated it!!!! Now it's a nice pool. There's a nice clean locker room, they even provide a nice clean towel, there's a bathroom - Nope, I want to be back in the lake. There's something about being in the lake - even in the rain - yeah I did that too - which brings me back to my childhood. Hopefully, I'll be back in soon.

My husband finally crashed!

My husband has started training with me! I bought him a road bike for father's Day with clip in pedals!!! I did all of the education about handsignals, clip in, clip out ***like peewee herman - and he's been doing great! yesterday, we were riding up a hill, and my chain fell off - which sucks. I had to stop short, and alas, he fell!!! (he was fine). However he has new respect for the clipped in thing! On another note....The open water swim seems to be getting a little better, I swam 800 yards and lived to tell about it (actually, lived to go for a 10 mile bike ride) so I was very happy. We will see what happens tomorrow, only 18 days to the Waramug Triathalon!!!!!
