From the Asheville School pool…
…to picturesque Biltmore Lake, seasoned and newbies, *in at least 50 states of fitness and mental capacity, line up together for the start or pre-race instructions…
75F air and water makes for a gorgeous race day.
The triangle shaped course is a 1/2- mile loop swum counter clockwise. Milers swam two loops.
Watched over by 13 volunteer Safety Boaters (Pam & Daniel Ross, Lou Hipps, Dale & Willie McCourt, David MacIntosh, Craik Davis, Larry Hartley, Heather Butler, Tania Kriegler, Liam & Zachary Pulsifer and Tom Sherry) the open water racers had their backs covered and their courses straightened!
60+ swimmers began the 1/2-mile and 1-mile races simultaneously!
