Holiday Hoot was my first ever swim meet. Coach Patty and Captain Kirk (my adviser) encouraged me to try three events: 50 fly, 500 free, and 200 IM. Going into the meet, I was mostly nervous about about the IM -- all the start, turns, and transitions. I wasn't worried much about finishing last, but was much worried about getting disqualified for missing a touch, swim an extra stroke before my turn, or an extra illegal kick here and there. I've heard from others that Coach…

This Saturday SwimMAC Masters practice is cancelled at the Latin facility due to the holiday Hoot.

Are there any swimmers out there who also enjoy Mountain Biking? Please get in touch with me. I try to go 2-4 times a week. Fisher Farm, Lake Norman State Park, and the White Water Center.

For the second year a few of us SwimMAC Masters made our way to scenic Moss Lake in King's Mountain, NC.  This venue is a typical Southern lake situated about one hour west of the Latin pool.  Attending this year were Bill "the Maui Maniac" Miller, Jeff "Dream Crusher" Murray, Mark Last Name Unknown, and me.

 

Weather conditions were not ideal, which, to me, is one of the things that makes open water swimming so enjoyable.  It was about 56 degrees with a decent breeze and…
