https://community.usms.org/swimming/f/open-water-training-and-technique/24229/olympic-open-water-eventExcuse my ignorance, but was/is there an open water swim in this year&#39;s Olympics? (I&#39;ve been too busy to read the paper, watch the TV, or search the net.) Thanks in advance.en-USTelligent Community 12https://community.usms.org/thread/260979?ContentTypeID=1Sun, 22 Aug 2004 11:00:38 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:320f355b-a095-4ec5-b8f5-498fe36e9247Rob CopelandNope, you didn’t miss it. There is no Open Water Swimming in the Olympics. We have been trying to get in for many years and it looks there may be an open water 10K in 2012. The wheels of progress turn slowly<div style="clear:both;"></div>
