Open Water Swimming tips

This made me laugh outloud.

Things to remember when open-water swimming

• Do not put your pet rock collection in your pocket for luck.
• If the water is cold, do not wear you winter coat, gloves, and boots.
• If passing the one mile mark causes you to remember you forgot something, do not go back for it.
• Do not answer your cell phone.
• Breathe when you head is above the water.
• Shaving your head may reduce drag, but it may not be worth it.
• Avoid swimming upstream if possible.
• Do not pick up hitchhikers.
• If you hit your head on a cement wall say, "dam."

I'm very excited about the triathlon team kickoff meeting this Saturday
