I have never swam in an open water event. I started swimming again in january in a 25 meter pool. I can comfortable swim 1500 meters in 24 minutes (no flip turns). Realizing open water has tides/currents etc. I am attempting to calculate what I might be able to swim a mile in open water. Any thoughts? Also, how many meters should I be training on a weekly basis to swim 4.4 miles. I am 46. Thanks..

I love swimming in rivers. The river I like best is the Bostonnais river in La Tuque Quebec. I used to swim from a friends backyard on the river. We would swim up to the waterfall about three miles out of the current and swim back in the full current. We sometimes had to dodge the logs coming down the river but what wonderfull things we saw.
