On Saturday the 19th of June, Susan came through for the team by completing the 6K National Championship race in Windsor, Colorado. Marcia, on the other hand, proved that at 65 she is a slow learner. Having proved to herself at Nationals that she could not breathe in a Blue Seventy, she was convinced to give it another try in a different suit. It did not take long for her to realize that she still could not breathe. Being prudent, she decided to return to the start and change suits and start over. But the race organizers were not sure what to do with her, so they had her wait until the completion of loop 1, and then she completed 3 loops or 4.5K of the race. She accomplished her goal to get in a good training swim, and gave away her Blue Seventy upon returning home. Be thankful that no one is going to try to convince her that it would be great in the channel! And congrats to Susan for doing a super job on the 6K. Both had a super time and the race was well run and well attended.
