I've been swimming competitively for most of my life.
In high school, I swam for a club team (Glendale Arizona Swimming
Gauchos) with 9-11 workouts per week. I took a break from swimming in college since I
wasn't fast enough to swim for the University of Arizona. In grad
school, I took up the sport again and swam for Berkeley Aquatic
Masters, and later for Strawberry Canyon Aquatic Masters. As a postdoc
at NYU from 2002-2005, I swam on my own at Coles Gym and the
Palladium, though swimming took a back seat to basketball during those
years. When I returned to NYU for a sabbatical in 2013-14, I swam for
Red Tide, and competed in
several meets and open water events. My best result that year was a
5th place overall finish in the Point Lookout Masters Ocean Mile Swim.
I currently swim with Team Fuego at Cal. I try to compete in at least
one swim meet each year, and do one open water swim each year. In
2015 I swam 365.2 miles (642750 yards!) |
