Iron Jack

Sensational swim today. Two kilometres, 50 minutes, best time yet.

I had been fighting the swim all day. Sort of stuffy nose, feeling tired and average, and knew I hadn’t done nearly enough work.

Fought myself packing my swim bag and tried to talk myself out of it the whole way to the pool. Overcame the urge to turn around and head for home.

Glad I didn’t – what an amazing swim. Felt strong and long in the pool. Every length went by easily – all 80 of them!

Today was a day when I felt like I could do Ironman – well the swim leg anyway!

Roll on the 25km bike tomorrow.
