5K swim

OK, why would they organize a race in which all of their swimmers are at a high risk for jellyfish stings? Isn't the Great USofA the land of lawsuits and high insurance premiums...races don't have the money for that kind of thing...
It must NOT be as serious as everyone thinks.
Anyway, the best case scenario is nothing happens! and the worst is to say "I got stung by jellyfish" and be irritated for some days. I got stung quite a few times as a child, sat on the beach and cried for a half hour and then went back in and swam around the rest of the day...(of course had to be all calamine lotioned up at night). (and I am sensitive to everything, get hives when I get bit by a mosquito)

Well I feel pretty good about the jellyfish not being where we are swimming, the Chester River.

I fly out in a few hours.

Will be swimming tomorrow morning!

Tested the sleeveless wetsuit on Wed in the pool. WOW! That was nice! It's the first time I wore a wetsuit and didn't hate it. I like sleeveless wetsuits! I hope it makes me super fast in the water!

I'll come back with a RR in a couple of days!

Sure, I leave town just when you are arriving!

Good luck, have fun, and kick some azz!
