Many folks got beat up getting thru them and some quit. I missed the finish line by about 50 yards due to the current,..had to run back up the beach.  27:15

Kind of depends on how you define the &amp;quot;end&amp;quot; of Summer but Pacific Masters has three left - all in September - here&amp;#39;s the link to the schedule. You may need to get to the newsletters from the home page for entry information with the exception of the Tiburon Mile that has a link provided.
