Way to go Barb!

My Perfect Adventure: Barbara Held

One of the world’s top open-water swimmers tells us why she didn’t pursue a career as a Disneyland mermaid or a flight attendant, where she traveled once to cuddle with cheetahs, and how getting older encouraged her to go farther than ever before

Another day at La Jolla Cove…

Weather’s HOT & the water’s warm & clear…  LJAC Members are claiming it’s one of the best days to swim The Cove; “it’s like swimming in an aquarium”!  The water’s flat & inviting with at least 30-foot visibility.  However, don’t use the 1/4 mile buoy as your marker as it has come loose & is currently a floating target!
