Swim Around the Rock 2014 results
Congratulations to the swimmers who endured Sunday, July 6th's 9th annual Swim Around the Rock! This is one of our most challenging swims and all finished strong.
I just wanted to thank you again for a GREAT DAY. I really, really enjoyed the swim around the rock. I met an awful lot of really nice people, met some great swimmers and the event was really first class. Everything you said about the currents was spot on, including the Turn of Events as you get to the West Side of Alcatraz - like being in a washing machine. But Fun! I hope to see you again for more swims and races and I hope to be moving back to San Francisco!!
Great race Coach Pedro! I had an absolute blast and so did the rest of the VCM swimmers! It was a great, friendly group of people. Events like this make me remember why I love this sport so much! Hope to see you again next year. Do you have a tentative date for the race yet next year? I really appreciate WWS providing a kayak for my support person, it really took a lot of stress off of us trying to figure out what to do about getting one.
