US Olympic stars Nate Dusing, left, and Neil Walker dive into the waters of Grand Cayman’s Seven Mile Beach to begin one of three ‘Splash and Dash’ races. The unique sports competition combined swimming and running. It was held Saturday. The two visiting swimmers formed two-man teams with Caymanian Olympian Kareem Streete-Thompson and American Olympic hurdle champion Allen Johnson. Organisers and participants were so pleased with the first ‘Splash and Dash’ that they have vowed to make it an annual event. Photo: Guy P. Harrison
