    One of last year's online coaches always included a distance-training swim in his weekly sets. Otherwise, these htreads may have something: Any tips for a FIRST time OW swim? - U.S. Masters Swimming Discussion Forums Cross Training for Open Water - U.S. Masters Swimming Discussion Forums OW Training routines? - U.S. Masters Swimming Discussion Forums 5K Training Advice - U.S. Masters Swimming Discussion Forums Cramping in Open Water Races - U.S. Masters Swimming Discussion Forums Lake Michigan Workouts - U.S. Masters Swimming Discussion Forums Newbie Question about Open-Water Racing - U.S. Masters Swimming Discussion Forums There are others. A bit of prowling through this forum will turn up similar threads. Good luck! Go long! Thanks everyone...I really just decided to do this race, the other day..So im hoping 4 months of solid training I can atleast finish :) My sprint background is what makes me nervous...Anything over a 100 is scary. :blush:
