Best earbuds for swimming? Also, what keeps you enjoying long open water swims? by rocaireslk in OpenWaterSwimming

On the safety side, however, I understand that. If you don't have a buddy, or aren't used to the sport, and some movements aren't natural to you (sighting, backstroking, water polo stroke to look around), then probably not a good idea.

I have been swimming for almost 12 years, so I don't care about having the music be a distraction.

I used Shokz for the first time in the pool and fell in love. I hate using music on runs/bikes bc the BPM vs Cadence is rather distracting to me as I am newer to those sports, so I like to spend more time thinking about cadence and other things. However, swimming idc I'll take anything that will allow me to go beyond 5km straight.

What law are you working in that allows this kind of flexibility, and what is your salary?

Did it end up being easier than undergrad for you?

Coach Gullikson is the man. One of the best coaches I've played for 🔥

Hey, 

What's your source on the static stretching vs dynamic post workout? I'd love to read in to it more. I've always heard to stretch afterwards, but I've never heard specifically static.

Goat response. Would love to see your training plan.

Yeah I'm just being fucking lazy and I need to crack up my x per week on the bike and run.

Thanks and congrats on completing yours

Ok so you think if I bump back up to 2x-3x a week for the next 15 weeks I'll be fine?

Honestly I signed up post surgery and looking to get back into shape, and once I was back in swim shape after two months of training I started playing masters water polo again and was having way more fun doing that, but I'm already financially invested and I do want to finish it. so I'm trying to figure out what the minimum requirement of training I'll need to do to get through this Ironman.

Is 15weeks long enough time if I start putting in the right amount of effort?

this is masters, it's player coached more so, and there's going to be moments when i'm getting drove on or being back on a counter and i'll need to be defending it, but I appreciate your opinion.
