Yes, that's a sombrero, in honor of the Cinco de Mayo multisport challenge I'm running. We still have room for one or two more! |

Pro 4343 Olney, MD | Subject: RE: GIRLS TEAM THREAD May Swim Challenge I survived OWS  Actually, the water temperature really wasn't bad. It was somewhere in the low 60's but I didn't have any problem putting my face in the water and breathing. I DID have issues with the wind, current and swells in one direction. It helped to breathe only to the beach side but then I was having trouble navigating. I finally gave up with swimming that direction and just did down wind/current. This is a huge confidence booster for next week! Kinetic here I come! |

Royal(PITA) 14270 West Chester, Ohio | Subject: RE: GIRLS TEAM THREAD May Swim Challenge What I went through to get my swim on today...my gym closed the pool for chemical problems but didn't post signs in the ladies locer room so of course I totally missed the other signs they posted. Did 200 yards and they come in and tell me it's closed.....Came home and it started pouring but only lasted a few minutes so I went out for a little ride. Checked on the pool...nope, still closed. Hunted down the next closest location to swim at. Worth the effort. This gym has 4 designated lap lanes set apart from the water aerobics pool and the water slide/kid pool. Was never interrupted in 3000 yards. |

Sounds so fun! You should post some pics. As soon as I get them from our personal photographer, I will post the pics... Can't wait to see them myself! I checked them out on FB, looked so fun! |

Champion 14677 Bronze member | Subject: RE: GIRLS TEAM THREAD May Swim Challenge MDHillSlug - 2009-05-03 10:44 AM I've got my first OWS practice of the year later this afternoon. Water temp will be in the low 60's!!  It will be my only chance for OWS before my race next Sunday, when it will also be in the low 60's. Last year at this race (3 weeks earlier) I couldn't breathe when I put my face in the cold water and my swim fell apart. I'm hoping to do much better this year. Hopefully the OWS today will be a confidence booster. I'll let you know how it goes later.WTG Nicole!! You will rock it next week. |

Fortunately not bad..... Just a little reddish... Have a great start into your week everyone! I hope you are not too bad. I once got bad sunburn while snorkeling; didn't think about needing sun protection. I don't generally swim outdoors but I'll have to be mindful of the sun if I do! |
