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:
I am looking at doing Donner Lake this August 9th for the first time. I swim daily about 2000 yards and have swum a 2 miler (Balboa - Newport, CA Pier to Pier) ocean, 1 mile Captain Craig, Ocean City, MD and 1 mile Lake Erie, Ohio...How did you like the High Sierras? RKW
