Subject: RE: Official first intro... I saw the IronicMan triathlon on the "group training" forum and I was definitely thinking about it. I have yet to complete more than 4 miles on my bike so I don't know if it will be too much for me. I actually just got into the open water on Saturday (La Jolla Cove ) and it was great! It went so well that I went back out today and...well...it wasn't as great today. There were a lot more waves, I swallowed so much salt water that I swear the water level at the cove was reduced by at least a foot by the time I left (ha...ha...ha ). I also saw a sea lion out there swimming along and I about had a heart attack right there on the spot. A friend of mine swears that you don't see as much marine life in Glorietta Bay so it would be kind of neat to compare. As if the sea lion wasn't enough to scare me the long strap attached to the back of my wetsuit kept swinging into my peripheral vision and I of course kept thinking that it was a "great white" ready to eat me.....So I never got into a rhythm or zone today I was kind of bummed. |
