I did an open water swim up in Petoskey over the weekend. I was going to do a second one, but a kayaker went missing near the beach I swam at and was yet to be found. There was absolutely no way I was going near that water until they found him.<br /><br />Awesome run up the hill. Next time, I expect you to push one of those canons up for some additional strength training!Ironman By Thirtyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01148960105643826347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-272746327697367079.post-772773327233559372010-08-10T18:22:31.532-04:002010-08-10T18:22:31.532-04:00fish are disgusting dead or alive!fish are disgusting dead or alive!Alexahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07845820864474228224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-272746327697367079.post-71614892651274303732010-08-10T17:41:53.668-04:002010-08-10T17:41:53.668-04:00Ok, sooooooooo I was wrong, that hill did suck

See, it is stuff like that in addition to the fact that I swim like crap...that I will most likely never do an open water swim Tri! I would of been totally freaked out touching a smelly dead fish!
