La Jolla Cove Relay

 

 

1-mile loops

 

 

10 miles total

 

 

3 in our group.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Me, Toby, Jesse

 

 

A team we became

 

 

Team Sea Nettle Sandwich

 

 

Originally named.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A crispy, clear morning

 

 

With sun and some clouds

 

 

We swam without wetsuits

 

 

Though they were allowed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Our blue, pink, and grey

 

 

Swim caps worn out at sea

 

 

Toby got pink,

 

 

Jesse grey, blue for me.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A triangular course

 

 

2 left turns per lap,

 

 

And time to recover

 

 

But not take a nap.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The miles passed quickly

 

 

We swam out and in

 

 

And battled the chop

 

 

Created by wind.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We finished the course

 

 

We conquered deep blue

 

 

And I couldn't have asked

 

 

For a better sea crew.
