I see that the 1st USMS 25K National Championship will be held in Noblesville, IN on July 19. Anyone planning to do this? Sounds sort of crazy. But. . . could be fun to try provided the training is there. . .
Husband just walked by and I mentioned I wanted to *maybe* do this. His response was, "Don't I provide enough for you?"
If only he knew the swimmer's mind. . .
This one kind of calls me then I read, "We encourage solo swimmers to bring
their own paddlers and kayaks." I'm from Arizona: Are these items supposed to fit in the overhead compartment? I assume the kayak thing is non-negotiable due to liability reasons (although I think a kayaker or two might kick-off as 25K is a long way to swim or kayak). Therefore, I predict only local competition (Indianapolis area) unless Southwest Airlines starts fitting their planes with roof racks or race organizers consider providing kayakers. Probably just as well as old people have no business going 25K.:wave:
