IMCdA Training Summary: Week 5

Ladies and gentlemen, it appears that I have already reached the “I don’t care how I look in public” phase of Ironman training. Exhibit A: I go to work with my compression socks on display.  Don’t even bother asking if I do my hair or put on makeup anymore…

Slowly but surely, my swimming is improving.  I attribute this progress to finally getting my ass to the pool regularly, shoulder strengthening exercises, and some badass swim gear.  Check out those sweet goggles 🙂
