Glad the Tri stuff is improving - you sound like you're handling it well to me. I think I've read on other Tri blogs that they swim as long as possible on the swim exit, but don't take my word for it. :)Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17720800873803974929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8925337665341056813.post-58979321160027614722012-07-22T08:12:48.315-04:002012-07-22T08:12:48.315-04:00What a great training session ...

The water is here in the islands are warm so there hasn't been opportunity for me to try one. One day I would like to do a tri in the mainland U.S. I guess that will be the time I will have to give it a try. Must be kind of neat to have so much flotation. It would be like swimming with a pull buoy... i guess.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04846136358775915126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8925337665341056813.post-37172170356321886612012-07-20T22:51:26.852-04:002012-07-20T22:51:26.852-04:00Yeah for you getting out in the water again!

And again - such a beautiful area. Happy day, too, that the bike thief was foiled by the lock. Can you fold down the seats in your car and throw the bike in the back so it is locked inside the car when you do errands, have lunch, etc? We never leave our bikes attached outside our cars, even if they are locked. Too much temptation for the dishonest folks.....HappyTrailshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17651141743444721517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8925337665341056813.post-44551800942027383092012-07-20T20:14:02.052-04:002012-07-20T20:14:02.052-04:00Trust me, it's far better being able to see th...Trust me, it's far better being able to see than not :)<br /><br />As far as how far to swim in, you should swim until one of your hands touches the bottom of the sand. Then it's time to get out and walk/run in. <br /><br />Glad you had a lock on your bike, that would have really sucked!!Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17584071206419891364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8925337665341056813.post-61198119063349567902012-07-20T19:45:25.230-04:002012-07-20T19:45:25.230-04:00Woohoo on the successful OWS!

Scary ...Yea!! You are going to be Soooo ready! :) <br /><br />Scary about your bike. Thank goodness you had it locked on there! I'm paranoid about mine, and lately I've been putting it in the car w/the back seats down. Of course, that's mostly bc my bike rack is missing a bolt, but it also makes me feel safer. :)Kate Geisenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11854561265520868538noreply@blogger.com
