I wanted to start training for a 3 mile swim across the Hudson for MS in September. i have never done anything like this before. I thought this would be a great goal to work towards and it is for a good cause.
Could you share any advice on training? I was thinking of finding a shorter open water swim. Does anyone know of any on Long Island?
I did join a swim group and so far that is great! It has helped strengthen my skills.
Thank you!!!!

The BATN6 buoy has water temp at The Battery (southern tip of Manhattan).
Thanks Rob. Wondering if I should buy wetsuit and leave the tags on in case lol.
I think I 'll hack 65...I've swam in the English Channel and the North Sea at the height of British Summer...wait...that's an oxymoron...
