The Lava Report
Air Tahiti
And yet another swim event on the beautiful Marine Base of Camp Pendleton this past week. Speaking of beautiful: Air Tahihti was the main sponsor of the whole Water Warrior Amphibious Assault races. Many Tahitiians were in attendance. Displaying their expertise in watermanship with so many outrigger, sup and swim competitions. Along with them were off the hook beautiful Tahitian dancers. Truly a cultural experience watching them. Right smack in front of big huge military artillary.
Jodi and competed in the Water Warrior one mile obstacle swim. What a hoot. And demanding course. A couple podium finishes for this old salt and not-as-old-salt-ette.
The 5th Annual Tiki Swim is this Sunday @ Oceanside Harbor. There are a 1.2 and 2.4 mile courses to choose from. The water is sooooo warm. Awesome courses too: 2.4 mile course starts south side of pier. Out around pier, north to the Harbor Jetty, and hang a right for about another 1/2 mile finishing in the Marina. The 1.2 you start south of the South Jetty. The Oceanside Harbor Days Festival is going on and steps away from swim exit/finish. Great stuff. Lifes a Beach.
