As many of you might have guessed, I am a huge proponent of open water swimming and open water events.
American Swimming Association, Austin, TX, recently hosted their 9th Annual Lake Travis Relays. Can it really be the ninth swim already? Time flies...

Some fun insights! The two top relays were very competitive. Bobby was saying some of the other relay members were still calling him the following week. They were mad about something, but really, they were mad that a relay with 2 girls beat them. And one of the girls, not Eney, kept up with their ringer, supposedly some guy that is about 28ish and went a 1:31 200 free. Bobby went against Lance, and Lance beat him, but not before bumping him to make sure he knew he was coming, and then gave him "the look", whatever that is, must be a guy competitive thing, as he swam away from Bobby. Word is Lance wants to swim. Fast. And be the fittest 40+ guy on the planet. Regardless of Fina/USMS, whatever, Bobby told Lance's coach that he is welcome anytime in a meet put on by DAMM.
Now, be honest. Would YOU think about, consider doing a meet here if you knew Lance was coming!!!!
