Heading to the Competition

An undefeated Russian (Larisa Ilchenko), two mothers out of retirement (Angela Maurer and Edith van Dijk), one of the world's most famous amputees (Natalie du Toit), a British duo who will take it out fast (Cassandra Patten and Keri-Anne Payne), a young American (Chloe Sutton) and several others from Brazil to Spain are waking up now and will soon be heading to breakfast and a warm-up before the most important swim of their lives: the Olympic 10K Marathon Swim. The next posting will come just before the competition starts.
