Subject: RE: Miquelon swim is going interesting crwdavis - 2012-08-22 8:30 AM That was the most disgusting thing I ever experienced. I will never do the Alberta Challenge Tri again. That swim gave me nightmares. I always had a phobia of weeds. I hated knee-boarding in them, and I even had a piece of fiberglass between myself and them. Wish I had my wet suit for that race. Can't wait to see if the water in Lake Havasu will be any better in November. I would think there would be minimal weed growth. It was pretty bad. I didn't wear my wetsuit either. It was the weed in the mouth when i was taking a breath that just about killed me! Have you signed up for Havasu? Me and my wife were looking at that one and another in Phoenix that weekend. I think that tri is pretty high end so if there were weeks they would be taking a weed cutting machine and cutting them off. |
