OK I got in. The most I have swam is 2 miles open water. I swim about 10K yards a week with 2 masters workouts a week. Now what. This race is 4.4 miles.
The race date is June 8. I think I can answer my own question... double (or triple!) my weekly yardage, hold yourself back on the start, finally, grit your teeth and "enjoy" gutting it out.
Ideas for training?:confused:

My issue with continuing the GCBS is staying injury free. last 2 years I've had neck issues from the movement repetition. I also get a stiff neck every time I surf. I'm 56 and would like to keep it up. Any suggestions on neck stretches or workouts?
One tip I'll share is that I've seen folks get cut feet from walking at the end. Swim it all the way In!
