Ok. So I've been a competitive swimmer my whole life. Love the pool but not CRAZY about swimming anywhere else.
I have done 1 OW swim YEARS ago in the ocean. But that was so long ago.
Doing the CB Swim for the very first time (1 miler).
Can you give me some tips? Just anything...I am in the dark when it comes to OW!:dunno:
THANKS!!!!
CB is Chesapeake Bay?
I haven't swum it, but would echo the general advice to do at least one OW swim of similar length before the event (that takes care of butterflies; 1 mile isn't very long), and try to stay out of the crowds in the water. A steady, moderate pace will see you to the end.
