- lead the catch/pull with thumb, esp. at start of stroke
- don't collapse catch at back of stroke; continue lead with thumb. Requires slight change to hand to compensate for body roll.

Bold in the Cold Half Marathon
Excellent race. New PR by 4 1/2 minutes. 3rd in age group; 13th overall.
Ran some of the last few miles with Lee, both to encourage him and as a (painful) recovery jog).
Didn't note the actual time or distance.
