2021 OL Recheck Swim Course Audit, Saturday, May 8, 2021
Dateline: Saturday morning, May 8, 2021 at the Training Center in Manhattan Beach.
Photos and videos both before and after I swam the course solo starting at 8:30 a.m.
Opinion/Comment: The course as set this morning on an approx. 4 foot tide with solid surf
seemed significantly longer than the prescribed 500 meters, perhaps by as much or more than
100 meters.
Below are two photographs I took just before I swam the course at 8:30 a.m. this morning:

--- There you have it. I have separately been informed that the course will "probably" be reset and measured prior to the next recheck date on Friday, May 21, 2021... #WeShallSee... --- In any event, I have since requested that the swim course "DEFINITELY" be reset and validated at 500 meters.
--- Until next time.....

Postscript: On Tuesday, May 11th, the swim recheck course was officially measured and the swim was indicated as 499 meters (on a 4 foot tide) plus 63 meters of running to and from the water to the berm. On Thursday, May 13th, I swam the course again as newly measured and finished in approx. 10 minutes... 3 minutes faster than this past Saturday.
