Sunday October 18th, 2009

I was sure surprised some of the conditions at Avila today. The air temperature was comfortable but there was heavy overcast and fog with very light winds. The surprise was the water temperature at 61.5! The water was very clear with no sign of silt from the creek and what wind there had been died and the slight chop laid down as we were getting ready to swim. The fog obliged by staying up high so we had plenty of visibility. Rob, Gary Cushing and I spent about 33 minutes swimming the triangle route clockwise in very nice conditions.
Both Gary and Rob are racing next week, Gary at the 1/2 iron tri in Santa Cruz and Rob at a 25M pool meet at UCLA. I believe that Duke and Angela are doing the Catalina triathlon that same weekend. I'll be at the beach.
