I no longer hate to swim

Really. A while ago I didn't even dare to imagine that some day I'd like to swim. But this has happened during last seven days. This doesn't imply that I'm faster than previously or anything like that. Instead, now I feel just fine when I jump into a pool. I haven't yet processed this so much, but I'm quite sure that this transformation is partially due to the triathlon crew of which I'm a proud member of. So thank you guys. In addition, a strained hamstring has amplified my willingness to whatever exercises which do not hurt my ass. Swimming is one of them. The other one is doing nothing.

Anyhow, I smashed my 2000m PR today. The previous was from last Saturday when I timed it for the first time. With regards to the forthcoming triathlon race I have had a plan according to which my race pace would be around 2:00min/100m. Today I swam 37:54 which equals with 1:53/100m. I have a running nose and sore throat so I'm pretty happy happy joy joy.

Today we also visited a triathlon event which was organized at Nummen Pyora. Nice, cosy event. I brought new goggles for open water swimming. 

Accordingly, today's soundtrack sounds something like this:
