David Cann Escapes From Alcatraz
May 12, 2010
David Cann recently completed the Escape from Alcatraz triathlon in San Fancisco and raised hundreds of dollars for Bicycles For Humanity in the process. Braving freezing and shark infested waters he swam 1.5 miles from Alcatraz to the main land, biked 18 miles and finished with a 8 mile run.
He let us know how it all went -
‘I successfully ESCAPED from Alcatraz on Sunday, conditions were great, the swim went exactly to plan and i didn’t meet any friendly Sea Lions during the swim. It was the most fun, half way accross I took a breather and looked over to the Golden Gate Bridge to my right and Bay Bridge to my left with the city straight ahead, if only i had my camera at that point.’
