Chip Peterson Looking Forward To A Bright Future

Chip, the 2005 world 10K champion whose sighting technique is one of the best in the business (see above racing against Fran), appears to be returning to his old groove – making the already deep American open water swimming team even more formidable. Now under the tutelage of Olympic coach Jon Urbanchek in Southern California, Chip’s return to form is timely with less than 12 months to the first Olympic 10K marathon swim qualifier.
