Subject: looks like I delayed the start of my IM swim training by a week Tonight I cut into my left pointer finger while cutting some firewood for our camping trip that starts tomorrow. It was right across the knuckle and I could see the bone. Had to get a bunch of stitches and a splint. Dr says not to swim for 10 days or so, especially OW. LOL, just my luck, I had my first 3 swims planned as OW while on vaca. Hopefully it doesn't slow me down biking this week, I have 3 25ish mile rides with 1800-2000 ft climbing each this week. Usually my rides of that distance are in the 4-500 range. Ohh well, I'm sure I can suck it up, they did put my finger in a splint to keep me from bending it and breaking it back open. We'll see how this goes. I was really looking forward to everything I had planned this week. |
