First Open Water Race ----Winners

My Brother Johnny and I with our awards at the Toronto Island Lake Swim August 18, 2013.
Yesterday my brother and I competed in our first ever open water swim race.  The race itself was also the first ever Toronto Island Lake swim.  So it was fitting that both my brother and I won the men's and women's overall 1.5 km race.  Other than the very cold lake temperatures the water was clear and calm.  The event ran smoothly and had over 200 althetes competing.  Can't wait to see how big the event is next year!
