I came across this interesting article. It lists the top 50 OW swims in the US. (It will also have a top 50 list for the world). Here's the link:

To the left of the article you can vote for your top 3 favorite swims! :wiggle:

Hey Leonard-
I am swimming the Chestertown next month for the first time! :D Sounds like a good swim - what did you think?
.
It's one of my favorite races. Very low key. The course is beautiful. Good post-race shower facilities. They also have great post-race food. The only downside is that they have occasionally not timed it optimally and that can lead to some current fighting, but even that can be fun. I've done the 5 mile race 5 or 6 times and the 2 mile once. Not sure if I'll make it this year as I am having some shoulder grumpiness and am not too fit. Still, I might go and try a shorter race.
I'm sure you will enjoy it. What race are you planning on doing?
