For me, it's now going on four weeks since my last swim. We were in Turks and Caicos March 7-14 for spring break where I was doing daily open-water swims along the beach. My last swim was a 3-miler on March 13. When we got back to the U.S., we had to go into mandated 14-day quarantine so I wasn't able to get out to go to the pool before they all closed. Who knows when I'll swim again...either open-water warming up (I live in RI), or pools opening again. I am maintaining fitness with bike rides, and a run here and there. And I know I there is other 'dry land' training I could be doing. But my concern when returning to the water is injuring myself because of doing TMTS. I'm just that kind of athlete. Raise you're hand if you think you're a candidate for a TMTS injury too.

My last swim was one month ago today, on March 13th. It was three miles along the beach at Grace Bay, Providenciales, Turks and Caicos Islands. Training for more frequent, longer open water swims and races...at that point I was well on pace for this to be my highest mileage year. I was already about 25% ahead of my next highest mileage year. Now...I'm behind about 20% (and counting).
