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!!!!

Congrats on your swim, Mike! Thanks for the report... that's one to put on my list....
Also, Rich, how'd your swim go? I'm all agog to hear your story!
I met Mike, and a few other swimmers who we both tried to convice to participate in USMS meets.
Swim as Mike described, I probably did closer to 4 miles with all the misdirection, choppy water and wind. It was a good day out though, and I'll be trying to do it again next year.
