Hi LOSTies,

Caledon start, 2014

I just wanted to give the Caledon Quarry Swim this Saturday a bit of a push!  It is a great first race of the season, and great value… a smart test swim for those with triathlons coming up soon too!

It is also the first race of the season in the Global Swim Series, so you can start collecting points in the GSS to build your ranking against swimmers from all across the province, the country and even around the world!  There are 8 races in Ontario… 11 races in Canada… and over 20 from around the world (and more being added all the time!)… including: Ireland, Brazil, Barbados, Mexico, Vermont!!!P7060041

So come on out for a great swim… various distances, clean, clear and calm water, prizes and even a BBQ… great value for only $30!!!

I’m doing it… so I hope to see you there!!!

PS. Caron Shepley also has free Stand up Paddle Board lessons for 30min on Sunday at the quarry. So post-BBQ people can be trying a free, 30min Stand up lesson with Caron. They do need to RSVP as she has limited boards, so they can be assured.  Classes at 1, 1:30, 2, 2:30 and 3pm.   You reserve to [email protected]

I founded LOST Swimming because I like open water swimming and would like to see it grow and thrive in Lake Ontario. I started as a competitive swimmer as a kid and ended up getting as far as a silver medal at Nationals and going to the Olympic Trials in 1988. But I retired after that, I was sick of swimming. So I got into running marathons and have run over 35 to date, as well as a few ultra marathons, including the Marathon des Sables (7 day, ultra across the Sahara Desert). I also kind of fell into triathlons and have done a handful of Ironman tri's too. This gradually got me back in the water and in 2006 I took the plunge and attempted swimming the English Channel. I didn't quite make it across, but the circle was now complete and after 17 years I was a swimmer again! Although I still do plenty of pool swimming, I now much prefer open water swimming and like to say that open water swimming is to pool swimming, what trail running is to treadmill running! As a result I hope to encourage more people to join me for a dip in Lake Ontario as often as we can!
