Attempted an open water swim this morning but it just was not going to happen in the "moderate" surf conditions. I knew the girls who were lifeguarding and told them to keep an eye on me while I went out. I splashed around in the waves for a bit, did a laughable amount of front crawl and then headed into shore. I will try again when conditions are more calm. It has been windy the past couple of days on the Island.

After failed attempt at open water swimming, I resorted to my safety blanket sport: running. 12km in 30 degree heat.
