Medals Aplenty At State Ocean Swim Finale

Saturday saw perfect conditions for King of the Bays which was the final swim in the State Ocean Series for this season and also (for non-wetsuit swimmers) the National Masters Open Water Swim Champs.

Congratulations to everyone who swam this season. It's been a bumper! Special mention for Dan, Dawn, Liz and Avy who finished on the leaderboard in their age groups - no easy feat given this is now the countries largest swim event.
