36km of AquaMadness. We love it!!
A fantastic effort from all eight teams and six soloists who took part in our little annual event in Boundary Water Park. This is the type of event where you find out a lot about yourselves, your teams and preparation. "Adversity does not build character, it reveals it", James Lane. Judging by what we witnessed on Saturday night our swimmers had it in spades!
