I'm starting to think about some goal races for the next few years and none of my aspirations include the Channel, Manhattan, or Catalina. I'd like to start going farther afield for my races, making it a fun vacation for my entire family with a longer race thrown in. Has anyone done any open water in Thailand? Indonesia? Vietnam? Korea? Japan?
I'd love to do 10K or longer.
Any suggestions?
Apology for pushing this thread up, but I am looking for races in order to build my roadmap to marathon swimming. There are some 5 km races in Japan but they tend to have short cut-off limit which is roughly my target times and I don't feel confident in making it. Are there any 5 - 10 km races with more generous cut offs?
