Escape From Alcatraz Triathlon - Swim Portion. June 8, 2008. I get up most every year to go out on a boat to hear
2000 swimmers jump in the water and swim to shore. Congrats to all the brave swimmers. Visit SFBAYAXIS.com for more event information and other great San Francisco videos.

  • Lol.....Sharks? Those BIG sea lions are what scared me.

    Depending on the current for that day, you don't always aim for the swim finish....

    or you'll be under the San Francisco Bridge (far, far away thanks to the currents).

  • I want to do that!

  • spends much of his time being humbled. I've watcher this film free @ Movie Watcher [dot] US

  • Thanks for the upload.

    Enjoyed it a lot

  • sharks wont really bother you dude. ...pppl do this in the bahammas....lol i know someone tht goes to tht triathlon

  • I suffered shrinkage :]

  • Yikes! I think that jump from the boat would freak me out. I'm not sure I can swim 1.5 miles in water that cold. Then after that the bike course elevation looks crazy. Not sure a warm weather, flat course Florida girl like myself would do well in this race, but it looks awesome!

  • That swim was quite a rush last Sunday morning. Every time I took a breath to the right, I was looking at the Golden Gate Bridge. I stopped in the middle of the swim to look around.......Alcatraz behind me, Golden Gate Bridge on one side, the Bay Bridge on the other side, and San Fran in front of me. That was a very, very cool experience. Coming all the way from South Carolina to do that race was well worth the trip and expense.

  • Comming from Ann Arbor, MI; see you on 6-14! good luck racers!

  • I'm doing this race in less than 3 weeks, and I'm very excited.......coming to SF all the way from South Carolina.
