3 hours in
Although I lost the 15 minutes of video of me finishing MIMS this year, I saved some of my footage!
This is early in the race, about 3 hours in. I’m in the Harlem, and the water’s finally gotten warm, brown and nutty. Conditions couldn’t be better, but I’m feeling a little sorry for myself because of the screwdriver someone has inserted into my lower back and is twisting with every stroke.
The swimmer next to me is Rachel Golub. I think Mo Seigel is just ahead. There’s also a 2 person relay around. We were all fairly close together the whole swim.
I think we had just passed, or were nearing Yankee(sp?) Stadium…
