But you stay true to your unique and badass self, which is one of the million reasons I love ya! I hate cold swims too. THE WORST. Way to tuff it out and kick some major bootay!KKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14000274933357972123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8021154093098498497.post-74954208025609716372012-06-26T08:39:03.521-06:002012-06-26T08:39:03.521-06:00Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Total anxiety attack in the water (for bigger reasons than cold and rain, but the rain certainly didn't help), and then my feet were FROZEN on my bike. Wool socks did nothing to keep them warm. Bleh!Theiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10075057197096006401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8021154093098498497.post-14266864775052641762012-06-23T23:59:10.860-06:002012-06-23T23:59:10.860-06:00Nice work Julie!

I can appreciate how hard it is to swim in outrageously cold water (the Banff race in 2010 was 12.something celsius and they shortened the swim!) - it sucks both physically and mentally. You nailed the race! Awesome job on pushing through a chilly day and running a PB, that is impressive! I'm exactly the same as you, I have my best runs in races on the colder days :)<br /><br />You're on a roll so far this year, can't wait to see what you do at GWN next weekend (I think you're racing there!). And then you will CRUSH it this year at IMC!Lisa Ulrichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02911606006007154407noreply@blogger.com
