Had a blast today at the Buffalo Tri! Not going to lie. It was hot out there! πŸ₯΅But the football crossed the finish line. Saw a lot of familiar faces out there and talked to a lot of new people, including some first timers. That was cool! The heat was not. πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†

Here's some pics from the event that one of the spectators shared with me. Enjoy!

Planted flowers again near the pavilion at Shady Oak Beach. Not much to look at now, but come Labor Day weekend for the triathlon, they will be in top shape! Keep that in mind this summer leading into your event(s). Just like plants, we need to put some work in the weeks (and months) beforehand. You can't show up on race day and expect good results. Today is the perfect day to start!

Practice swim last night Camp Gunther. The water at Lake Minnewashta went from low 60s on Memorial Day to nearly 75 degrees just 3 days later. Shady Oak Lake's water temp should be rising too! Our competitor from Brazil, Mario, is liking this warm weather, as are Steve and Helen, from Camp Gunther, who will be in charge of the swim start on race day. NOTE: Camp Gunther offers group lake swimming opportunities every Wed. morning and Thu. nights. Check 'em out!

This is Mario. He just flew in from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil for the SWIM-Off to Summer on the 31st. He joined me for a Masters swim workout this morning and then I showed him Shady Oak Beach afterwards. He walked barefoot into the water and said something in Portuguese, which I assume translated to, β€œnot bad!β€πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
