Any tips for a FIRST time OW swim?

Swimalison
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!!!!

  • For your first open water swim try to RELAX, stretch out long and streamline, get in a good rhythm, and enjoy mother nature. If you are the non-aggressive type start wide and in the back to avoid crowd panic. If you enjoy contact and tend to swim aggresively then go front and center and enjoy.
