I wrote before and got some great advice. I am doing a 1 mile swim in the bay on June 10th. I have not been in the pool regularly training. This week I got in 3 times. The first day I did 4 laps straight. The second day I did a 500, 400, 300, and 200. On the third day I swam 60 laps. I do all this in a 30 minute-40 minute time frame. Do you think I will be okay if I continue to do something like this? Any other training ideas. I am a teacher and have a 2 year old, so there is not much free time. I want to be ready, but can't spend hours each day training. Agin any ideas would be great. I am just looking to finish this event, I'm not trying to break any records. I just don't want to have to be pulled from the water.

Great job. The conditions were so much better than last year. The Chesapeake Challenge (1 mile) and Great Chesapeake Bay Swim (4.4 mile) are great events. The race director does a fantastic job juggling 2 events at once, considering all boat traffic is stopped in and around the race course. Now that you've got one under your belt, I bet future ones will become more fun and less stressful.
