Paul's Aquathlon

An Aquathlon, apparently, is a 1000-meter swim followed by a 5-mile run. The Triathlon Club of San Diego hosts six per year and for the guys (and girls) who are swimming 100 meters in a minute, it's a series of races with a big fat prize at the end. For everyone who doesn't actually have gills on their bodies, it's a great practice for the upcoming Olympic-distance Triathlon. I think it's crazy.

Here is the group getting ready. La Jolla really is one of the more beautiful places here.
Wouldn't it be cool if I told you that bump in the water is Paul? Actually, I think it's one of the floating course-markers.
The man himself looking pretty tuckered out after his excursion.
