Are there any suggestions to any types of preventitive vaccines if any that would be of benifit in these longer OW swims? The bodies of water that I enter are not all bad...Lake Mich, finger lakes, Lake Erie, Potomac. As endurance atletes we are already a little bit immuno compromised. Plus, my insurance is changing and figured I would get caught up before the end of the year if possible. Thanks.

    I have Hepatitus A & B, both as well as tetanus. The Hep shots are a series over 6 months, so plan ahead. Get your flu shot as well - nothing to do with swimming except that it may keep you from missing a week or two of working out. -LBJ
