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!!!!

  • It used be that way; not so much now. The part of the river where the swim is being held (about 40 miles north of NYC) is actually very clean. It's still a little funky near NYC, but nothing like it used to be. :applaud: True. The Hudson river doesn't even require shots. Swimming Mahattan, I would get Hep A at least. The Hudson river has become one of the cleanest rivers in America.
