In preparation for many of us going to Ironman Louisville, Ironman Wisconsin, and Rev3 Cedar Point, we will have a BIG SWIM on Tuesday, August 23 at 6:00PM. The swim will be from Columbia Beach to Bradstreet Landing. The course is about 1.8 miles. We will meet at Bradstreet Landing at 5:45 and drop some cars for the return trip. This will be a great way to begin your taper!
We will head over to Westlake Panini’s for wings and beer afterwards!

FYI and just a thought.
yesterday we did a " Big swim" a little different. Instead of Columbia to bradstreet we went from Huntington to Columbia.
There is alot less boat traffic. I measured from the farthest west rock jetty at Huntington to the steps at Columbia is 1.9 miles. To the East point at Columbia is 2.1 then back to steps is 2.4 miles.
Just a thought to consider for a safer version of the " Big swim"
Also I plan to do this twice. Monday evening and again Tuesday evening so if anyone can't make it Tuesday then be there Monday evening at 6:30 at Columbia Parking lot

Looks like I can't make it Monday.
The problem I have is something has come up later in the day where I may not be done in time for Tuesday evening.
I will do it Tuesday morning
If anyone cannot make it Tuesday evening and want to go for it Tuesday morning let me know
Probably 7am could be earlier of later if needed for someone else.
I have to this no matter what with someone or alone so let me know

I did 2.4 miles solo this morning. Water was glass. Did it in 1 hour 22 minutes. Which is fast for me.
