Wet

I'm quite comfortable with this tapering phase - the theory is to reduce volume whilst keeping the frequency with a bit of intensity thrown in.  At the moment I'm reducing all 3.

The starting numbers were published yesterday, I'm 1131 out of 1160.  The numbers start at the youngest age group, so there's obviously not many older than me.  Can't wait till I'm 65, there's only 6 in that category.

3 laps of the lake last night which was a bit choppy in a fairly strong wind resulting in unplanned mouthfuls of water at certain stages.  Intended to do 4 laps, but needed a pitstop and couldn't bear the thought of washing my wetsuit out.

This could be me...

 

 

But probably more like this..
