July Update

Congrats to all the Coeure D'Alene Ironman finishers, those royal blue finisher shirts looked really good at the lake last weekend.

Lots of excitement at the lake with people getting ready for up coming Ironman USA, Louisville, Canada and Wisconsin as well as 70.3, Olympic, Sprint and Try a Tri distance races too. I wish everyone safe and happy training as well as a fantastic race experience.

We are now at 162 members. The new 10 pass has been very successful in gaining new members. To give you a snapshot, we have people from Windsor, Lambeth, Guelph, Rockwood, Cambridge, Hamilton, Ancaster, Burlington, Oakville, Mississauga, Brampton, Toronto, Milton, Georgetown as well as a few other places. Clean water, lifeguards, fantastic training area and super people make the Kelso Open Water Swim Club a great club to be a part of.

Are you looking to test your swim fitness? Do you have an upcoming race and want a simulation day? The Lake Ontario Swim Team (L.O.S.T) will be hosting its 3rd annual point to point 3.8 km swim in Oakville on Saturday August 14. For more information check out their race info page on their website.
