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. . .

The entry says that you can rent kayaks there for $30, so it would probably mean only getting someone to do the kayaking. If you can't bring someone with you, then perhaps a local kayak club could help. When I did MIMS in 2006, I had the BEST kayaker EVER, just by pure luck of the draw. If I do it again some day, I'm going to beg her to be my kayaker again.
The 25k is so tempting, but with all that is going on right now in my life, it's probably not realistic. Big props to USMS for having it, though. Also, I notice that Marcia Cleveland is involved and she has a rep for doing things right.
