Lac St. Jean Magog

Aimeson King has been busy in the lakes of Quebec swimming open water swims in the past week.  After finishing 6th in the Lac St. Jean open water FINA World Cup 10km race, Aimeson competed in the Traversee de Lac St-Jean, a 32km FINA Grand Prix race in frigid waters, ~15 degrees Celcius near the start, ~18-19 degrees for most of the race.  It was Aimeson's first race over 15km in race, and Aimeson finished in 9th place among men in a time of 7 hours and 10 minutes.  Great Job Aimeson!

Wow, do they take their open water swimming seriously in Roberval, Quebec.  Aimeson King is competing in the 10km World Cup race in Roberval, or specifically Lac St.-Jean tomorrow, July 25, as well as the historic 'Traversée Internationale du lac St.-Jean', which consists of a 32 km race, straight across the lake.
