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!!!!

http://www.nycswim.org/ good link for information. They have a number of swims each year. The most recognized one is the Manhattan Island Marathon....in which my daugther participated in 04....water conditions not that bad....but there were jellyfish in the East river. They have a link to water temp sites. Good luck in your swim.
