2x2 Hr SWIM at the Aquatic Park, Water Temperature 53-63F


On June 12th 2010, I did two 2 hour swims at the Aquatic Park. Besides the perfect weather conditions, air temperature almost 80 F, the water temperature wasn't giving me much of a break, with a few very warm spots, 63F and, a few very cold spots, 53F.

My swim partners for the day were: Maya, Berry McGuire, Darrin, Jim Bock, Alison Kalhammer, Kim Howard, and our beloved friend from the Dolphin Club and also a successful English Channel swimmer; Duke Dahlin.


It was perfect day to work on my "brazilian colore".

TOMALES BAY SWIM


On May 30th 2010, Chris Blakeslee, aka El Sharko, also a successful English Channel swimmer, hosted the SPRING CHOMP SWIM. The course was from Hearts Desire Beach, West side of Tomales Bay, to the East side of Tomales Bay and back; a two mile swim. The water temperature was around mid 60's F. It was a perfect day!

Perfect swimming conditions!


Fantastic Area for a Pic-Nic!

After the swim a big group of southenders went to Point Reyes town for a great brunch. In this picture; me, Masita Nasution, aka Maya and my swim partner Berry McGuire.
