Open Ocean Swim, Tri-Training Update

By
Real Estate Agent with Berkshire Hathaway Home Services Florida Network Realty BK 3030920

My training for the sprint triathlon continues...

Today, we swam "between the buoys" for the appropriate mileage (1/4 mile) for our sprint tri, coming up VERY quickly on 7/9/11 - and it was interesting to say the least.  This was in Jacksonville Beach, right by (conveniently) the lifeguard station.

The view you have in the ocean is VERY different from a pool (especially here in NE FL) and there were so many other swimmers, you could easily end up with someone swimming on top of you (good practice, I think!).

My new goggles worked out great, and my pool work has paid off well - next weekend, our own "mini" tri to train for 7/9  - I will of course, keep y'all posted!
