Will Speck Memorial 5K :Cranston, RI

Happy father’s day! For a second year in a row, Anne was able to drag her Dad, Joe to a land-based NACHO event. Joined by sister Mary and husband Patrick, and friend of NACHO Arlene, the team had a good showing at the Will Speck Memorial 5k. Anne, Mary and Patrick were a little tired from dancing late into the evening the night before, but managed to do okay despite the sore feet and blistering temperatures. Great job team!

Narrow River Turnabout Swim : North Kingstown, RI

Joe, Brian and Anne dove in to this 1 Mile open water swim challenge on an early Saturday morning in June. Joe, as one would expect, had no problem with the swim, and easily cruised to a competitive finish. Brian struggled a bit, not having swam much recently due to fall marathon training, but finished strong soon after Joe. Anne was thrilled to have survived the event, and looks forward to more land-based opportunities in the future. (ps - Kudos to Brian for immediately transitioning into a 14 mile run at the end of the swim!)
