Chaffing from San Fran 5 Mile Swim

My new wetsuit that I love but did this!  I usually go w/ baby oil for a mile or 2, after that I usually go with Vaseline or another slippery concoction for anti-chaffing!  :( 

Glad I had neosporene!  Had to do a company presentation with this ta boot!  Did not look good!

Birthday Swim

Yesterday was my birthday and I spent it riding around San Fran with a bicycle.  Hills are a bitch but was a pretty good work out and saw quite a bit of the city. 

Afterwards, I was able to get a 5 mile swim at the Dolphin Club Swim Club in the San Francisco Bay Aquatic Center.  I got in with a wetsuit so I can get mileage instead of coldwater training.  The water was not bad 50F, I could have done a swim without the WS but I def would not make it 2 hours that I was in there.  I used baby oil and should have used vaseline bc my neck is so f-in chaffed!  Pics will follow...

Well, I have to get 7 more miles added on to that in 5 weeks for the Rotto Swim!  Going to have to start double dipping starting tomorrow in San Jose and continue on for the next 4 weeks.
