If you have not already spoken to him at La Jolla Cove, received a gift of a Garibaldi-wire design ornament from him, or participated in one of his organized long-distance ocean swims, let me introduce you to Robert “Bob” West.
West has been a source of inspiration in the marathon swimming community for many years and his consistent priority has been to wrangle as many individuals as possible into the sport. Since the 1980s, he has shared his passion for long-distance open water swimming by encouraging and mentoring open water swimmers from his training grounds, La Jolla Cove. Carol Sing, David Clark, and Anne Cleveland are three athletes West has mentored; all have been inducted into the International Marathon Swimming Hall of Fame.
