swim practice

I heard that the Boston Triathlon Club practiced in Walden Pond at 6 am on Friday mornings, so I showed up. The water was pretty warm--not the cold water swim practice I needed. But it was beautiful. The pictures are of resting after swimming across the pond (I'm on the right) and then setting out back the other way. There was some debate about how far it is--apparently a little under a half mile each way.
