I am 30 years old and decided to do the 1 mile bay bridge swim in Maryland. The event is June 10th. When I get a chance I have been swimming in the pool. I have worked up to a 1/2 mile in about 30 mins. That is with taking breaks. I was wondering how to train for an event like this. I can not get to the event site to practice, so what should I do in the pool so I am ready? How many days should I swim? How far? I am clueless and can use any advice. Also, do you think getting a wetsuit is a good idea?

Thank you for the advice. I am excited about the swim. Good luck. Maybe one year I will be able to do the big swim.
