Not nearly as enjoyable as yesterday - definitely more crowded then a bunch of backpackers going slow and not letting faster swimmers through... grrrr...!

Nice one Sissi, you should try the 2km under 60 minutes challenge, I'm trying tomorrow. do you swim in a pool or open water?

John F • 11:39 GMT, 9 May 2012 • Encourage

pool!... there was bad weather until yesterday to face the sea, but i'd like to start swimming in open water maybe from next week :). Roughly 2km, 3 times a week should the basic training for my next goal: Olympic Triathlon (30th June in Sirmione). Let me know about tomorrow and good luck! :)
