This past weekend masters swimmer in Los Angeles hit the water in Westwood at the 2014 UCLA Masters short course meters meet. The meet was held at the Spieker Aquatic Center and served as a tune up for many of the masters swimmers getting ready for SCM championships later in the fall. Olympic Champion Darian Townsend, in the midst of heavy training, hit the pool for some races as he gets ready to join Team USA at the short course worlds this December in Doha. Here’s photos and a time lapse from photographer Mike Lewis
