Hi, my name is Nicholas Caine. I was born April 9, 1993. I graduated high school at Sacred Heart Prepreatory in Atherton, California class of 2011. I am currently attending Trinity University in San Antonio, Texas class of 2015. I am a member of the University swim team, Trinity is DIII. I started swimming year around when I was seven years old with Solo Aquatics. I started open water swimming with Water World Swim Club in San Francisco when I was 13 years old. It started with a my dream to swim from Alcatraz to shore and since then has grown into a deep passion for the sport sending me around the world to swim and race. I have swam with some of the top Athletes in the United States and completed some of the hardest swims in the world. My greatest swim to date was the English Channel in 2009, when I was 16 years old. Since the Channel I had three shoulders and have been out of the marathon swimming world for a few years since I was rehabilitating my shoulder. Fully healed I am ready to start my distance training and pick up where I left off.
