Captain's Courageous

Last swim:  Sunday, Noon

Next swims: Weekdays 6:15 a.m and 6 p.m., weekend days 8 a.m. and noon
Water temp: 71
Waves: A bit choppy, with a push from the south
Clarity: Some clarity
Kru: I did not make a list, so there's probably some errors and ommissions here list (chime in in the comments if you have corrections):  Itch, Diablo, Brick, Dave, Bobber, Ala, Lydia TTL (triumphantly returned from Big Shoulders), Luna, others, Kahuna

Yesterday, while some of us were home a-bed, or off for a pitifully short swim, our Ted (who despite being on the injured reserve list for most of the season), was off on an odyssey of pain and endurance at Ironman Wisconsin.  His incredible streak stays alive (even though his run splits were perhaps a wee bit slower than years past).  Very impressive.  Congratulations Ted!

Fortunately the Village of Whitefish Bay has organized an event perfectly suited to commemorate Ted's achievement, his accent skills, and for us to cap off the end of summer:

Congratulations Ted. Looks like you had a secret weapon in bike special needs bag!
Great recovery mid race and drive to finish!
