Anyone have a reasonably accurate approximation of how their SCY pace per 100 translates when swimming open water? Assuming calm conditions and no navigation issues I'm curious what other people would use to estimate a 5K OW time based on say a 1000 SCY time of 12:30. Any thoughts?

I haven't done the 1000 free since being back in Masters (I might next month though) but my "guess" is that your time is about where I was last summer. I did two 5K's (one Intercoastal with the tide, one lake), the intercoastal I did in just over 51 minutes I think and the lake swim I did in like 62 maybe.
