I was just curious about everyone's "first time". When/where did you take that first plunge into open water??
(I did a search to see if a thread like this had been done and came up empty.)
The swim was with the South End Rowing Club and it was raining with thunder and lightning. It was still wonderful. I have been to SF more times than I can mention. My mom was born, raised and met my dad there and I was born there and visit as often as possible. I have walked and ridden a bike across the bridge when I can fit it into the schedule and, yes it is awsome. My husband and I were there in July for the SF marathon and I spent many a moment studying the distance, thinking about what it would be like. It was all I could hope for.
