I am doing the 1 hour swim Sunday. What are the basics for me to know? What should I eat the night before. Should I drink water during the swim. Are their any articles I can read online to learn about how to swim the 1 hour? Thanks

  • It's not as big of a deal as it sounds Harlan, with all the swimming you've been doing lately you'll make it through just fine. The other suggestions are great, personally I always need to break long swims like this into smaller chunks, it makes the time go by much faster. You could try doing it as a bunch of 200s where you pick up the pace just a little on every 8th length. Before you know it the time will fly by. It's going to be fun!
