Swim
Comments: Pretty uneventful swim. This was mostly thought as OWS training for the Tri on Saturday and to see how the shoulder would handle it. was very careful in the pack in the beginning as I was scared to get kicked in the shoulder so I slowed down a bit. During the first 300m I stopped 5-6 times completely because my goggles were leaking. I got quite annoyed by it and at some point I decided to just ignore it and it was fine. Kept an easy even pace and used the right shoulder as little as possible. No hard pulling at all and I made sure to enter deep to have a shorter way through the water. This worked out fine and I was not in pain. Much better than during the swim yesterday! Energy wise I was right at the limit the entire swim. Only had about 4 hours of sleep after flying all night and then the run before. Of course the cold water did not help but at least I was in a wetsuit... As I was the only one in the class 1000m in wetsuit I won....and I am now Icelandic Champion in 1000m wetsuit open water swim :) Post race
