Who we are and where are we from.


We have just passed the 1/2 way point in our open water swimming, with 15 sessions in the logbook. There are 14 more scheduled swims and I think everyone will agree it is a great training opportunity, not only in the water but riding and running as well from Kelso Conservation Area

Our membership has ballooned from 55 people a year ago to 97 strong this summer. Our group is made up of new swimmers, experienced swimmers, expert swimmers, old swimmers and young swimmers. There are newbie triathletes who have completed there first race this year to Kona and Clearwater World Championship qualifiers. There are members competing at IM Lake Placid, IM Louisville, IM Canada, IM Wisconson, IM Florida, 70.3 Steelhead, 70.3 Muskoka as well as a big group who has committed to IM Coeur d'Alene next June.

Scanning through the membership, it is truly amazing to see where everyone is from. Here is the data:
Ancaster - 1
Brampton - 3
Cambridge - 1
Campbellville - 3
Etobicoke - 1
Georgetown - 9
Grimsby - 1
Guelph - 1
Hamilton - 7
Milton - 30
Mississauga - 24
Moffat - 1
Mount Hope - 1
North York - 1
Oakville - 5
Rockwood - 4
Toronto - 4

We are truly fortunate to have such a great opportunity to swim in a clean open water lake and great training partners and friends to share it with.

See you at the lake.
