Coach Mike Lockwood
Coach Mike swam out of the womb. He was a competitive swimmer for summer league, high school as a kid and has competed in the Pacific Masters swim league. In 2007, he was introduced to open water swimming through triathlon training and completed his first Alcatraz. He has been swimming in the San Francisco Bay and International waters ever since.
Coach Mike coached the James Logan High School Swim team from 1999 through 2019. He has also been coaching open water swimmers in San Francisco Bay since 2010. His high school coaching experience has given him an eye for detail when it comes to stroke correction. His open water coaching experience has helped him to develop a sense for long distance, marathon swim training. The San Francisco Bay has given him many opportunities to plan creative swims based on the desired goals of those he is coaching.
