I was on my raft watching the swimmers round the first bouey during the half mile stage of the triathlon when I heard a child call out from a nearby pontoon, “Daddy! Daddy, where are you?” There was no wind. Watercraft surrounding the swimmers were silent. The only sound was the swimmer’s splashing, until the same child called out, “Daddy! Daddy, raise your hand.” Then I heard a strong male voice respond from the Lake, “Hello!” After the cheering from the boat calmed, a male voice said. “Keep your focus!”
