Does anyone have thoughts on which Alcatraz swim is the best? I see a few online but am not sure which one I should try to get into. I'm not interested in a triathlon, just a swim.
I'm also interested in this. I'm considering going out with a group that does this from Arizona (see thefastfoundation.com/.../) with my older daughter. This one will be more family / just-do-it oriented than competitive, but might be a great way to get going.
Check out http://www.dolphinclub.org/ as these are the hard-core Bay Area swimmers. I've swum a few times in aquatic park for training and, while the Dolphin folks are tough with respect to doing their swims without wetsuits, no one gave this wimpy Arizonan a tough time with my wet suit on.
