Lance Armstrong swam in a 2.4 mile open water swim this weekend and was only beaten by two professional triathletes. He swam the distance in 49+ minutes and missed out on the win by only 22 seconds. WOW!

Did he pass the drug test?

Where was it. I'd love to see what the course looked like and what the field was like.

The article I read said "he competed in the Red Licorice 2.4-mile open water swim in Austin, Texas on Sunday, April 3."
wet suit ?
It appears so. This was supposedly taken right after the race.

i was registered and skipped the race because i simply wasn't up for the 4-hour drive to lake travis in the middle of night...
i always have 'swimmer's remorse' when i miss an event i registered for!
did armstrong and the tri-swimmers wear wetsuits?
Former Member
the event was at the mansfield dam at lake travis near austin, tx...
