Time for a new challenge!

6 years later, 4 kids, two wives and at least 4 different countries. This is everything that has happened since Tico and I last trained and race for an open water event. Taking advantage of the fact that we currently live in sunny Miami we decided to start training for the 2016 Swim Miami beach.

This time a 5k race to get us back on track! swimmiamibeach.com on August 28th.

We haven't really trained in the pool in almost a year, and just started back 2 weeks ago with a 1500mts that almost killed us. Yesterday we completed a 3k swim in key biscayne that although slow proved we can finish a 5k in 5 weeks.

I'll use the blog to post the trainings and progress as we approach the date. It worked once, it should work again.
