I am considering Round the Sound for my first open water swim. Of course I've swum in lakes and creeks and the ocean before, but not like this. The only "competitive" swimming for me has been in a pool.
Is there anything I can do to get ready by swimming in a pool?
in fact, it's easier because you don't keep running into the end of the water.

Ah, I would say no, not even close....no walls to rest, lifting your head to constantly spot, large groups to fight, wind, weather. OW is like distance running, once you get going you just keep going, and going. Its ALL about getting into a groove.
