I have my first OW swim in a week. The race will be 1.76 miles (3,100 yards). I have swum the 3,100 for time twice now. My pace is 1:18 per 100 yards in a 25 yard pool. How realistic is this pace in OW? There won't be any flip turns. There's the first time OW swimmer factor. I won't be wearing a wetsuit (which I wasn't in the pool). Ect, ect. Thoughts? Thanks.

  • I feel that without turns you will be 10 secs slower in OW. Remember to look up every 6 - 10 strokes to see where you are going. Good luck !
