www.swimthesuck10mile.com/.../About.html This is a 10 mile swim through the mountain area of southeast tn. This will be the first year for this swim. The leaves will be changing color, during Oct, so this will be a great time to be in this part of the country(plus no humidity)

    That looks really cool. How much assist do you get with the current? If the locks have been opened for a few days before the swim, the current will make the 10 miles swim like 3-4 miles. The tennessee river can have a strong current. If the locks haven't been opened much, there won't be much of a current. Won't know much until the week or so leading up the swim.
