Saturday, July 16, WSI’s Matt Wright competed in the 89th annual Goguac Lake Swim presented by the Battle Creek YMCA. For Matt, this event was just the first half of his preferred race; the aquabike. It was a cool July morning with water temps higher than air temps as over 100 swimmers ranging in ages from 7-77 got ready to dive in. This year the event offered 3 different distance options: a 250m swim for the under 17 crowd, a 750m swim new to the event this year, and the traditional 1.1 mile open water swim.
Matt competed in the 750m event and took first in his age group and 3rd overall.
