Little Red Lighthouse Swim

In looking at the www.nycswim.org website, it seems that they have changed both the start time and location for this year's LRL swim (13 September 2008). Originally it was listed as starting at 4:45 pm and going south-to-north with the incoming tide. However, it is now listed as starting at 2:15 pm and going north-to-south. But the tidal charts say that this means that you would be swimming against the current, which is brutal in the Hudson. Anyone have any info on this? Thanks. -LBJ

    Evidently something got read right! Loose calculation showed I was averaging 0:40.3 per 100 yds (1:09:13 finish time), notwithstanding navigational errors. Very fast conditions. Fun race, well-run, would love to do it again next year. I will never be a sprinter, but at least I can have a glimmer of the sensation. DV
