Thankful tongue

My tongue the 24 hours has still been extremely numb and the inside of my lips have been peeling pretty bad, so I figured I'd let them rest a bit and get back to the GSL on Tuesday.  So today's swim was in a pool.  I could have opted for Bountiful Lake, but after reading an article in H2Open about Weil's disease, I figured I'd try to avoid that place when possible.  So this morning I opted for the clean and clear chlorinated water of the SDRC.  That was a good choice and my tongue was ever so grateful!

Today I did:
1000 free warmup
2000 pull
1000 - 10 x 100's odd IM, even free on 1:40
2000 finger paddles
1000 kick with fins
1000 free easy
2000 paddles
1000 - 500 free, 500 back
2000 finger paddles
1000 free strong
100 - 50 back, 50 breast

14,100 yards total in 4:02 (The same time that Cathi took this morning in the Provo marathon)

That's probably a good idea about Bountiful Lake. Also, I just barely noticed there's a landfill just a quarter-mile above the lake. That can't be good for the water either.
