Escape From the Rock


I did it! I survived the 1.5 mile swim through the San Fransisco Bay from Alcatraz! What an event it was! Pictured above is myself with my sister Christine in the middle and her friend Kim who swims with her on their Master's Swim Team in North Carolina. My time was 50 minutes which is great seeing how I was hoping to finish in a bit over an hour. Christine did it in 43 minutes. She rocks! Below, my sister and I pose in front of our swimming challenge. So, now I am done training for the summer. I have completed a Triathlon, Mt. Hood and this swim all in a months time and I am tired. It's time to play with my kids and enjoy some Seattle sun!

Wow, what an accomplishment! I can't even swim to the end of the pool without having to stop! :) I thought the water around Alcatraz was shark infested! If so, are you out of your mind, woman?!! Anyway, congratulations, you must be so proud of yourself! Oh, and you look great!
