Today's open water swim was at Blue Lake Park (thank God for people with lakes as their back yard). I love that lake and really enjoyed my swim this morning (a little over an hour). I also had my first diving lesson. My first attempt was a nice loud belly flop, the landing was so loud, I felt it echoing in my ears and defnitely felt it on my tummy and legs! It was hilarious. I could not stop laughing because it was the funniest thing. I had the right idea in my head but freaked out a few seconds before I hit the water and moved from the position I was instructed to stay in :). I was told I had to commit once I took the plunge! I tried it a few other other times and I was told it was a lot better :0). So glad that lake house had a diving board.
I was pretty tired after the swim and took a short nap then went for a 5 mile run. My day included a very much needed massage and ended with a bonfire and smores.
