I went out this morning for a mile swim with an L.A. Tri Club group. Before we started swimming, when I was looking at the ocean, currents, etc., I saw a very large pod of dolphins. There were probably 15 to 20 dolphins in the pod. It is always exciting.
We swam a mile and it felt pretty good. I got advice from Tim Bomba to do a 2 mile ocean swim at least once a month between now and the Ironman Arizona in November. That is probably very sage advice. The Redondo Beach pier to Manhattan Beach pier is about two miles. I think I will incorporate that swim at least once a month in my training plans. Plus, I will participate in this year's Dwight Crum Pier-To-Pier Swim along that route in August, so I might as well get used to it.
