I'm gonna hijack this thread as it is somewhat related. As I was chatting with (S)he-man about this endeavor, it struck me as something I'd love to do as well. I really love long distance swims but I have a very annoying problem, my dang right arm falls dead asleep at exactly 1500 meters of continuous swimming. I can keep swimming but it's not so much fun. Sets are fine, just continuous swimming.
I have no idea what causes this. I suspect it is a stroke defect and i breathe exclusively to the right. Any ideas out there?
If I can whoop this problem I could easily do a 10K or maybe even something retarded like a 25K.
