Coogee Island Challenge 29th November 2009



Express Glass Island Challenge
2.4k swim around Wedding Cake Island
Good conditions, bit of a north-westerly wind came up during the swim, so swam back from the island into wind and chop. Swimming through thousands of little jelly blubbers behind the island.
Did the 1k swim Splash & Dash slowly as a warm-up, Time 20:56
Swam harder in the main swim 2.4k Island Challenge. Went out hard, tried to keep up with the main pack. Pretty tired at the end. Recorded time was 51:31 on the electronic timing. I thought I would have been under 50 minutes, I swam a much faster pace than in the 1k, I wonder if they tagged my timing chip with the wrong wave start +3 or +6 minutes.
