SHORT NOTICE! Fellow Gulf LMSC members, if you are still crying crocodile tears over not having done the 2024 USMS 5K/10K Virtual Swim (50m pool). We have a chance for you to make up that loss and participate in the 2024 3000/6000 Virtual Championship. This event will be held in a 25-yard pool (ohhhhh, now I got your attention!).
The Gulf LMSC will host an opportunity to swim this as a group event on Sunday, October 6th. You will be able to see how fast you can swim 3000 or 6000 yards. You report this time to USMS and see how you stack up against Masters swimmers in the whole country.
