 Swim
Comments: Started wide as everyone was bunched tight at the line. Thought I had a ton of open water right away. I did, I was way wide. Coming up to the first turn buoy I was at least 25m wide. Swam in, but still was wide. Never really got back on course until the very end.....like 25m from the mat. What would you do differently?: Obviously work on sighting.  Post race
Warm down: Just hung out with Tracy, Doug and Mike. What limited your ability to perform faster: Sighting. Was a little sore from Thursday's swim workout, but sighting was a much bigger issue today. Event comments: I liked this race. Low key, but had some good swimmers there. Great ows practice. Last updated: 2012-03-11 12:00 AM

Master 2621 Almaden Valley, San Jose, California | Subject: RE: Jordan Lake Open Water Challenge Great job - I'd say you weren't as wide as you thought you were, AND that you're fast as heck. |

Master 2005 Silverton, Oregon | Subject: RE: Jordan Lake Open Water Challenge Awesome job, Linda! Would be thrilled to have your swim time, even with the wide sighting. I'm sure you'll get it dialed in as the season progresses and be even speedier than you already are! Congrats on first place! |

Got up, showered, ate. Picked up Tracy and off to the race.
This was easy and very low key as it was only a ows race.
Got in 3 min before time to line up. Just got wet. Water felt good. 74 at the shore, 71 deeper water. Perfect :)
