Hey guys,
There were some cancellations in the swimmer lineup for the King Wolfe Swim and the organizers said I can have an entry, however, I need to get an escort Kayaker by end of day today (July 4th).
The swim is a cool event from Kingston to Wolfe Island a small island in the middle of Lake Ontario with a wind farm (the wind farm is a cue that the Lake can get very rough, thus the mandatory need for escorts). Direct crossing route is 5km with 11km involving two loops of a small island on the way that adds 3km per loop.

So if anyone is in a vicinity and wants to have some fun, let me know! The organizers will provide a kayak. You don't need to be an expert Kayaker, but proficient enough to make the trip and handle yourself if water gets rough.
