The Race: Coca Cola, July 24th, Ft. Myers

This was easily my most comfortable race yet. I've heard ocean swims are easier because you float better and swim with the current etc. IMHO...nothing compares to fresh water. You drink a little water you dont feel like you're going to drown. Its great.

The only problem I ran into during the race is my heart was pounding so hard the first two miles of the run it was giving me back pain. I've had that a couple times in training but in training you can afford to stop.

Post race I participated in the Lean Cuisine Ocean Mile Swim (which was in a lake) . All im going to say is Swim-Bike-Run in that order not Swim-Bike-Run-Swim. I cramped so bad I breast stroked 3/4 of the mile.

Another Second place fat-tire finish [of 4 ;)] one of these days I'm going to catch that first guy.

Next Race Clermont ..... errr uhhh I think ... to be continued.
