Woot! First OW event entered!

Rich, Way to go! You will have to tell us what you think of it(open water) Like you, I have entered my first open water race...the USMS 1-3 mile swim in Sandpoint,ID. I keep asking myself why I would want to leave the confines of my safe, lighted,roped pool to try this type of race. Then I realized, that is exactly why, to step out of my comfort zone and try something new. Good luck with your race. John Thanks...I enjoyed the short swim I did at the beach last week but it was in the rolling surf and hard but I enjoyed the experience...looking forward to it! Good luck to you too John.
