From Sandpoint, ID to Sands Point, Long Island
Patrick Brundage is an Arizona Master’s swimmer, training with Sun Devil Masters up in Scottsdale. He says he's been tracking this blog and wants his fellow swimmers to know about another great upcoming open water event: The USMS 1-3M Open Water Championships in Sandpoint, ID on August 4th. Patrick is planning to attend and hopes to see some other Arizona swimmers up there. He hasn't done this swim before, but says it looks to be a fun one – straight line lake swim with a nice ‘sighting line’ of a bridge that you follow. He promises to bring back a full report. Thanks for the info, Patrick.
If anyone else has info to post, please let me know. Meanwhile, I'm back east to participate in the Swim Across America Long Island Sound Swim tomorrow, four miles from Sands Point, Long Island to Larchmont, New York. This event raises funds for various local cancer-fighting charities. I was just in the Sound this morning and it was relatively warm and clean and calm. I can't wait. Hopefully, those thunderstorms will hold off. I will give you a full report.
