    More than 500 athletes rushed the shoreline in droves Monday morning for the 95th Annual Oceanside Pier Swim, tackling the mile-long route around the pier.

    “It is true, open ocean so you have the currents, you have the waves, you have those natural elements, but today we had really good conditions,” said Race Director Sabrina Houston, who told CBS 8 it was especially important to hold the event this year.

    “It’s a big year for the Oceanside Pier because it was on fire earlier this year, so we really wanted to have it and make it special,” said Houston.

    While the end of the pier remains closed due to damage from the fire in April, 80% of it is currently open to the public.
