Hi Everybody!
DianaC and I did the Alcatraz Sharkfest Swim on September 16th. It was a great race. We both completed it. My time was 56:20.1 for 1.5 miles. We had a beautiful day for the swim. The view was great. I highly recommend it. For info about the race and results, check out http://www.envirosports. We met so many great people. Anyone else go to the race?
Swimmy :)
Hope this doesn't come across as a "commercial" but I've got the record for number of Alcatraz crossings - 432 without wetsuit or fins. If anyone ever has any questions about Alcatraz, please feel free to ask me. I've learned a lot - the hard way - in those crossings and am willing to share those experiences. OK - the "commercial" part is I've written a 40-page booklet on swimming from Alcatraz & I also arrange privately escorted crossings.
Alcatraz is a very, very fun swim and is never the same swim twice - it's always different each time out.
