Hi Everyone!
I am new to the forum.
I am an avid mile-a-day pool swimmer. A friend is trying to convince me to do some open water swims in NJ. Maybe next summer?
Any advice to get started in open water swimming?

Wet suits were not allowed when we swam the marathon races. Water temps were from 48 degrees to 85 degrees depending where the race was. In cold water you could not talk and your hands were like claws, but the money was good. In the hot water you could not drink enough fluids. You guys are spoiled with the wet suits.
