I am planning and preparing for a 10 mile swim in Utah in August 2010 and the possibility of a Catalina/English channel swim in 2011 or 2012. I am looking for a coach that could help me in my training as well as coaching me during a channel swim if I feel I can go forward with one. I workout in Lake Oswego, Oregon. I am OK with online coaching for training purposes with some one on one time for stroke assistance. If I am successful with preparation for a channel swim it would include an all paid trip to the swim location. I need someone with experience coaching long distance swimmers.

for the EC in 2011, you should start trying to book a pilot right now!
i would also recommend spending some time in dover. many swimmers show up on weekends to swim and train under the supervision of freda streeter and company. also, if you have the chance to crew for a swim, you can witness first hand the pilot and observers during a crossing.... very useful and impressive.
i am going to be in dover this summer for three weeks. PM me if you would like to join.
my catalina date is july 20.... i don't know if i will have much time to train in california pre-swim.
