I had my Timex stuff in my cap last night and had a nice swim.  The problem is that I didn't press the "start" button!  When I finished my swim, I hit the split button (to note where I ended and eased back to the beach.  When I downloaded everything, I realized that my "split" was actually my "start" so my log shows about a 50 yard swim at a 5 min/100 yd pace.  

I am pretty sure a lap around the course is 250 yd.

I'll be out there in a black one piece Kiwami and whatever swim cap I grab (prob pink or red), I'll be there before 6 but I'll start swimming right away.

 

I just did my first 70.3 this past weekend, so I'm still super new as well.  I'll try and say hi if I see ya!

Ended up not making it out there Tuesday, I'll try again on Thursday.

 

Got hit with a "Quadricep tendonitis" diagnosis after Kansas this past weekend and my right knee was hurting too much to do anything other than sleep....

Of note, I tried the GPS in the swim cap last thursday.  It recorded 0.46 miles (~810 yards) from the point my feet hit the water, swim out to the first bouy, 3 complete laps, then to the same point on the beach. (swim cap was taking on water at an alarming rate!)

Of course, I forgot to upload to I could take a look at actual distances, but I would assume slightly less than 250 yards roundtrip on the bouys.

For training, I am just going to forget to count the swim out and back in, then use 250 yards for each lap.

I'm in Seattle to run a marathon this weekend, so I won't likely be back out there till next thursday.
