Here's me and two other greatest relay teammates, Patrick (on the left) and Mike (on the right). We found each other through someone that Mike knew at the Dolphin Club. I swim at the Dolphin Club - aquatic park - and one of other members (Mike's friend) posted a "swimmer wanted" ad about a month ago. I thought - hmmm... my knees are bad, I can't run or bike, but why not do a swimming leg of a triathlon! I'd get a kick out of swimming for the two other guys, and at the same time enjoy a team sport (swimming tends to be a loner sport like running and cycling). So we've cautiously signed up for the triathlon together, not really sure about the compatibility of each other, but after doing this mini-triathlon (for me, it was only a 1/2 mile swim), we realized how compatible we were with each other. We aren't hyper competitive, only competitive about ourselves but without pressuring each other too much. I really enjoyed every minute of being a part of a team of such great guys, and I look forward to it. By the way, I'm quite impressed by my own time of 11 minutes for the 1/2 mile, as it is pretty fast for me. I'm glad that I didn't let the other two down ;-) Thanks guys for the greatest teamwork!
