Oh wow ksh. I am feeling a little anxious for you. What do you think your friend meant my "they will have something for the jellyfish."?? WHere is this race?? I really think it is going to be ok.

FIRST PLACE? !!! Super impressive! YOU get the respect for being a very talented swimmer!

I am really excited to hear abut this swim! I hope that it goes perfectly. Tapering is always hard anyway, but adding in stinging invertebrates makes it more mentally challenging I am sure. You are going to be amazingly well though, I am certain!!!! Let me know what other details you find out!
