Hi all. I am about 8 weeks out from a 5K Lake Swim. I am a strong pool swimmer but never done this distance in "open" water - pretty new here. I am convinced I can muscle though it if need be, but would like to make a competitive age group showing.
I am training almost exclusively in pool, so looking for advice, links, or books on workouts, distances, pace, taper (?), etc. Thanks for any advice.

Thanks srcoyote,
I am the exact opposite and function well in warmer temps. I train at 4 different pools here and I find the coolest one at 81F very cool even during intense longer sessions and always have my best workouts in the 87F pool. I hope the Caribbean Sea is very warm the week of Bonaire trip.
