Today was an actual no mandatory workouts day but that did not stop many of us trying to gain some extra points and adding in a workout. There is a points race going on in the camp which makes things a little more fun! I won’t be winning the points race but tried to gain some extra points nonetheless. So I opted for a 6km swim with a 12x (100 IM set, 150swim) set. I joined Karen for the IM set which made it a whole lot easier to get through! Then I attempted the 20×100 set on 1:45 which dropped to 2:00 and then I had to abort. The wind was making the pool a little extra wavy and after the IM set I may have been a little more tired. I got to ten and then opted to just swim the rest of the 6000m. Mission accomplished!
The afternoon we had some fun time with a visit to a winery and some wine tasting. The initial plan was to ride our bikes to the winery but the winds are even stronger today so it was changed to a drive. Afterwards we headed to the town of Puerto de Carmen for a little shopping where I got my oh-so-tasty European Nutella to bring home and some souvenirs for gifts. A low-key day. Not sure of the plan for tomorrow….will have to wait and see.
