RESULTS
The Results for the Pacific Masters Short Course Meters Championships 
1500 M have been posted. Thanks to Jim Shaw, Carol MacPherson, and 
the Rinconada Masters for putting on the event.

Finally, the results of the Donner Lake Open Water Swim are available 
and have been posted on the web site. There was a problem of getting 
the swimmers in wet suits separated from the non-wet suit swimmers. 
It was a lot of post race work for the Sierra Nevada Masters, but 
their work in putting on this favorite swim is appreciated.

The Folsom Lake Open Water Swim results  have also been posted. This 
is Rocklin Masters sophomore year running this event. Thanks to Terry 
Maginnis and the Rocklin Masters for putting on the event.

LOG THOSE MILES FOR GREAT T-SHIRTS
It's not too late in the year to swim the Florida Keys or complete 
the 3000-yard postal swim.  These great events and more can be found 
on the USMS website at <http://www.usms.org>www.usms.org under 
"Fitness Events".  Be the first to complete a virtual swim in all 50 
states.  Complete the events at your leisure in the pool or open 
water.  Log your yardage and send it in to get a great T-shirt or 
commemorative item.   The Check-Off Challenge T-shirt for 2004 is a 
real I-opener.  Gotta go now to log some miles on my virtual swim to 
Key West, Florida.  Wish me luck with the wildlife in the Everglades!
