Hi.
I am doing the Little Red Lighthouse swim (5.85 mi) in NYC in a couple of weeks. I am a little anxious. I'd like to hear from others who have done this swim -- tips, advice, etc. Can you sight off the lighthouse? Will I get sucked into the water treatment plant?
I've done the Bay Swim (4.4 mi) several times -- I have a feeling that with the tidal assist the LRL swim might be easier, even though it is longer. Am I nuts? Well... um, I mean about comparing GCBS with the LRL swim.
Thanks in advance!

I did the Park-to-Park Swim earlier this year. We went by the water treatment center with no problems-not even a slight current towards the plant. Kayakers helped keep people from swimming too close to piers and the treatment center.
It looks like we will have good weather for the swim this Sat!
Saturday will also be my first time doing the Little Red Lighthouse Swim...any suggestions on where to park near the start and then near the finish?
Thanks
So that was totally fun!!! How long does it take them to post results? I'm excited to see how everyone did. I have no idea when my wave went in so I really have no clue how long it took me.
results are up
Digging there results web site :) Click on the swimmers name and get a resume of other swims they have done, nice touch.
