Thetis Open Water Swimming

It's that time of year again!

Paul Regensburg of Lifesport and myself will be putting on the Friday morning open water swims again at Thetis lake - in the water at 8 AM - starting on May 28.
This is a coached session - with two coaches working out of kayaks. The sessions are hard but fun. Last year the response was over whelming - with as many as 30 swimmers showing up for many of the sessions.
The workouts are varied but will include an emphasis on hard pack swimming, in and out skills and over all endurance fitness swimming.
The level of swimmers varies greatly. Everyone is welcome and the swims generally finish between 9:15 and 9:30.
For athletes not currently a member of Lifesport or Velca, or are not privately coached by me the summer pass fee will be $75 or $10 per drop in.
