Otherwise shallow water running is on the schedule. Fortunately she can swim and bike relatively pain free, so she is not completely out of the season. Deep water running is currently all her doctor 'allows'. The 2001 season however needs serious rescheduling and St. Croix as well as IM California are positively out of the question. More time will be spent to find sponsors for the next two months, too.
Money continues to be very tight.
Ooooops, today was not her best one. Although her swim and bike times were not too bad at all, Gill had to give into strong nausea seven miles into the run. For about three hours on the bike her body would not sweat at all, a very strong sign of the body's water retention due to the very high internal salt concentration. Any food would not want to stay down. Needles to say that after a few hours she already felt better and began to doubt her decision when intense dissapointment took over.
