Thanks Coach Bob!

Last night was our second open water swim. Bob, a TNT coach was nice enough to make last night an unscheduled group swim night in Nokomis. I was actually surprise that more people didn't show up, but the eight or so that did, got so much out of it. We swam the same course that we did on Saturday, sans the panic and rush of a mock-tri. We worked on several strokes, sighting, and just being comfortable in the open water. It was a ton of fun.

I love swimming in the open water. Drop me in the middle of the ocean and I'll be happy. I could just float on my back for hours if I could. But a controlled swim with a million other people in the water can be unnerving for some people.

Next weekend Molly and I are talking about doing another mock-tri just on our own, same course, but just the two of us. I think its a good idea.
