Event: QOC Manassas
 
7 AM

Swimming (35) 59:30 [1] 1.97 km (30:17 / km)

To the pool just after it opened at 7:30. Swam for close to an hour, trying to rest as little as possible. I think 60 seconds of total rest. I misplaced my timex between last night and today, so I wore the 910xt to track the laps. I let it do it automatically, and I don't believe what it came up with (82 laps). I know I wasn't going that slowly, so I add four more to make 86, so there!

Had the lane to myself the whole time, though people came and doubled up in all of the other lanes. Not sure why they left me alone, but I am not complaining. Maybe it was the conservative one piece suit with legs that scared them off.

From the pool to the QOC meet at Manassas. A little frustrated because I made my way there via the scenic route, but not as frustrated as Amy who went even more out of her way. She was just unloading her car when I got there, and I just sort of stood in the way, a bit out of it while she set up.

About 240 starts with 330 people. A wild and crazy day with having to reuse SI-cards and collecting Green maps for reuse. Reusing the SI-cards was made difficult by having to operate with cold fingers. With the open fields, Manassas is always colder then you realize. I managed to keep the rest of me warm enough with lots of layers. I felt like a sausage, but at least I was warm.
