BRRR....COLD!!!

My first attempt to swim in Lake Coeur d'Alene yesterday was interesting. The water temperature was about 60 degrees (maybe), my feet turned numb the second they touched the water, and I couldn't see anything but dark green on the bottom. I managed to swim 3 laps (possible 1/3 mile) before I decided to abort this decision. Luckily, I brought two swim caps so I wouldn't get brain freeze during all of this.

This was discouraging to me since my race is in 2 1/2 weeks!!!!

On Sunday I am attempting another trial run (swim, bike, & run) at Liberty Lake. This will include a swim in the lake and hopefully the water will be a little warmer and less murky looking.

P.S. Today Aaron & I have been together 10yrs all together!!!! YEAH!!!
