I see for the 3 mile Gatorman you have to have a 90 minute USMS 3 miler within the last year to qualify. Are there any other local 3 milers in the area? Haven't seen any....
Sort of like you need experience to get experience?

Yeah, I also posted a note to the RD, response was along the lines of what you said (jacques clouseau in a speedo, good stuff). Seems they just want to make sure you can swim 3 miles, it's a serious distance, although I guess they take your word for it...
Response =
"The statement is accurate, however, are you between
19 & 60 years old? Have you completed a 3 mile swim (in the ocean) under 90 min within the past 18 months?
If the answer to BOTH questions are yes, send in your entry form.
Thanks for your interest in our event,
