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. . .

I did the 5K at Clemson two years ago and the murky, warm, man-made reservoir was so much less pleasant as a swimming environment than the natural Hudson Valley and Adirondack lakes that I can't motivate myself for a 10K there.
Thanks for the reminder on this lake. I grew up water skiing on it, so I am used to the dirt and grime. I don't know anything different. Oh except there's a Lake Dow in McDonough, GA. It wins the nasty award. Swam in it anyway.
