Subject: RE: Ironman Wisconsin : Official Threadstainofmind - 2009-09-04 3:14 PM Another issue regarding the lake, and maybe this is stupid, or maybe it's just my luck, but a few weeks ago at the Open Water Swim I tore a huge chunk (at least the size of a pea) out of my big toe on a rock while climbing out of the water. 2nd time this has happened to me this year. It made my long run later that day pretty rough. I might be wearing swim socks because of it. They'll have some covering over those entry rocks for easier mobility when you get in, which helps. As you approach the finish, there will be volunteers helping you up and out the ascent, too. |
