I am not a big fan of swimming in the ocean, so the fact that we had to lather up with Vaseline to help keep the jellyfish off… yeah I was about done there! But, I won that battle and kept pushing forward through the next. several. (mental) battles…
Free Swim workouts at the end of this post.
Result: 1st Overall
Remarks: This was the hottest race I have ever done. Humidity was high and temperature was over 100, good thing it was just a sprint. Turns out at this point I was trained well enough for 4 miles unlike the 13 miler I had to do 2 weeks earlier. Even though it was a smaller field I beat some very high caliber athletes, one of which ended up placing 2nd at Worlds in the 40-45 age 2 months later.
