Tired swim, but at least I swam!

SWIM: 1000y in 20-23 mins
COMMUTE 10 miles

I must have really enjoyed Friday's swim to come back again so soon after a big training weekend! I do admit to having crazy thoughts about 5K OWS...those thoughts were tempered by the fatigue I felt this morning. Even though I have energy, I'm awake, and I'm feeling soooooo  much better than expected, my back and shoulders were decidedly not ready for too much today. They got weak and sloppy fast. No need to drill bad habits!

I ran in to D for the first time in weeks. I asked about recommended OWS races, and he pointed out something about my endurance training I've never considered before--that I can train to swim 2.4 miles followed by a 112 mi bike and marathon run. So why NOT do a 5K swim with NOTHING after it?!  LOL. Never thought of it like that!

So now I'm browsing OWS sites. D mentioned a Swim to the Moon race, and it got me thinking about Googling all the Moon races out there to see which ones I can do. :)

Oh and I should mention it's a FULL MOON night!
