Prep time

The meeting is over and we've had dinner - now it's time to prep for the morning. There are two waves, a slow one at 9 am and everyone else, including Tina at 9:30. We'll all be there to send them forth into the warm waters, and have found 4 spots to catch them en route to the finish. Tina is anticipating about 6 hours for the event and she seems very relaxed.

Mike (kayaker) and Tina have prepped food and drink, and are now headed to bed (separately). Check back in the am for more pics and updates on the swim!

All together now

There is just a different feeling when your feet hit ground in Key West. It is truly tropical and plantation-like all at once. I feel at one with ole Papa himself.

Tina & Mike are at the mandatory race meeting and they'll meet us for dinner afterwards. Bri is pretty sick with a cold, but seems okay for now.

I'll post again later when we have more race details.

And so it begins....

Brian and Tina are off to Key West today. Tina is at T-2 days to her CRAZY swim around Key West. I use the word "crazy" because that is the best adjective to describe this feat. She's been training like a dog (or should I say dolphin). Stay tuned for more details and pictures of her swim!
