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:

Anyone doing the 2 mile Reston Lake swim on May 25th? Not sure if anyone thinks it might be too close to the Bay Swim. I don't plan on tapering until one week before the GCGS but wanted to get other's opinions on particiapting in another race so close to the "big" race.
