One day til takeoff




OK, I've prepped as best as I could. Broke in the new wetsuit up at Falls Lake on Sunday, in windy conditions. I figured if I can swim into the current against the wind, I'll manage the river-like Alcatraz swim. Big issue for me is the cold water, brrrr!




I will arrive tomorrow afternoon, then swim on Friday at Aquatic Park as prep for Sunday's swim. Lots of race meetings, strategy sessions, and networking to do. I am excited and nervous at the same time. There is a fine line between them.




Here's two pics from the event.
