Congratulations to Personal Trainer Bob Talamini, who won the Texas State Open Water/Long Course Championship in Galveston Bay on Oct. 23.

This was the first ever Texas State Championship race that included K2 Kayaks and stand up paddle boards. According to reports, conditions were tough and winds gusted up to 25 mph, with kickup of three-foot waves on the course. T he point-to-point 11-mile course took the participants four miles off shore, around Red Bluff and to the finish at Sylvan Beach.
What a tremendous accomplishment!
