I am a 35 year old male and a runner. I would like to start swimming on a regular basis and am very interseted in open water swimming. I enjoy longer endurance type sports. I just ran my first ultra marathon. I really dont know where to start as far as the swimming goes. I do not have any prior experience axcept for a few triathlons when I was in my early teens. But that is really no help because I had no clue what i was doing.
How far should I swim at first?
What type of workout would be good for a beginner?
What books or videos would you recomend?
Thanks for your time and input!!!!
