I will move to Hawaii if you promise me that I will grow at least 5 inches taller when I get there. (I think I'd still be shorter than both of you though!)

Dang you Island chicks are hot, fast and strong!

Ditto to that! Great pics. Thanks for sharing. Looks like a great day.

You just have to have a creative photographer, I am not taller than Rachel, but look like it in this pic.

Cute pics! That looks like a great time.

Looks warm. Now I am dreeeeeaming of an open-water swim race that's warm enough to do sans wetsuit.

rachel, check out those capri pants girl! You are the sarah jessica parker of style on slowtwitch. you island girls are making us white girls very jealous.

"Very hot, very hot!"

(Quote from Pretty in Pink in case ya'll missed the reference)

You girls are smokin'. Looks like a fun day. It is cold and cloudy and threatening rain where I am so I'm drooling over your sun.

you have me cracking up over the SJP remark.. I'm just a Lucky Brand addict :) And I would never, ever wear this hat:

I think the ST womens camp should take place out here.. sometime in winter, when you all need a break from the snow. Maggs & I can work out the logistics of where to stay to make it cheap..

Well I'm already sold. Tell me when and I'm there! :D (that was easy, huh? haha)

There are ocean swim races here every other week in the summer. Come on out!

An ST Women's camp in Hawaii sounds great! - especially in late winter, early spring, to get a jump start on our early season training.

So if we come out there, would we look like either of you two when camp is over? ;-) If so, I'll be on the next flight out there!!!

I was going to ask about those capris! so they are Lucky Brand? I thought Lucky Brand was just jeans?

the flames on her suit are appropriate- you guys are some hot womens! :)

Lucky Brand makes sweats too, and some other stuff. Those are drawstring sweats. Horribly overpriced, but I wear them 3 days a week, so they were worth it. The hub just gave me a great bag from Lucky for Mom's Day.

Ghia Girl, awesome swimsuit!!!

thanks TC! $20 from clubswim on swimoutlet.com. I stock up on different patterns a couple times a year. that one is the 'official' team island (a very unofficial ocean swim team) racing suit. I have a workout bikini just like it. the clubswim suits are really cute and at $20 each you can't go wrong.!

I would love to do a ST Women's camp in Hawaii - I have not been there since I did the Maui Channel and Waikiki rough water swims a few years ago and would love an excuse to go back.

You've done the Maui Channel?

Rachel is trying to talk me into doing it this year. I was training for it last year but was in a car accident and it derailed my swimming.

Re: Maui Channel - I did it on a relay team back in 2003 - it was tons of fun. They give away these really cool towels as prizes too! One of my all time favorite OW races. Then a few days later did Waikiki - there was a hurricane passing south of the islands and of the over 800 people who started only 300 or so finished -all over the local news the next few days. I got horribly off course because my contacts fell out and I couldn't see anything! Still had fun, but my time was about an hour off (normally go just over 1 hr for 5K and it took me about 2!).

Oh you did it that year? I wasn't a swimmer then so I didn't do it then, but remember the stories of the elite guys/gals struggling against the current. The next year they just cancelled the swim because the conditions were bad. It's been nice since!

Wow--awesome pics! Can you say 'homesick'? I fear that when I come out there for IMWC I may never leave! :-)

Hawaii, YES!

I'll be there in October and hopefully November. But I'd come pretty much any time.

I'm all for it, but the problem with the winter is it's rainy.
