64-66 water temp, no chop, no wind, great morning! It turned out to be a first for many in our pod.
Flipper did her first ever under 40 minute open water mile. Congratulations, Flippy!
Rokky did her first Parkside under 50 minutes! In spite of navigational problems, she finished the race and probably swam the longest distance amongst all participants.
Sergey did his first non-wetsuit race and won a gold in his age group (of size 1). In addition, he also won a $50 raffle prize at the awards ceremony.
i am not pleased with my time of 42, the same as last year. But am happy to get a ribbon for coming in 2nd in my age group (of size 2; do you see a pattern here?).
Many fellow fishes from Menlo and Dolphin Club were spotted and chatted with.
Here are some pictures.

Great pix as always mads. great job today! Even if you are not pleased it is awfully hard to do well 2 years in a row on the same course! Sergey had an incredible swim, shredding any competition in his class! And Sans wetsuit I might add. Hence the ribbons and gift cert! And sandy, what can we say, she just gets in the bay once or twice a year and gets it done! Nice job menlo!! Come on come all for next time!!
Very impressive Babes and Sergey! I live my swimming life vicariously through you! Congratulations!!
cool! congrats everyone
Thanks, Star and Unawoken. Looking forward to your company at some future race :-)
