I have set a goal of swimming the English Channel in 2013. I believe I have given myself plenty of time to train and prepare...(I hope). I am currently heavily involved in longer distance triathlons (70.3 and Ironman distance). My "final" long triathlon will occur on November 21, 2010, at Ironman Arizona. After that, I will take some down time (30 days or so) and then begin my training for my Channel attempt. I am comfortable in the open water. My max distance is 2.4 miles at this point.
Alright, let's hear it. Advice?? Questions?? Comments?? Let me know what you are thinking!!

Just for curiosity, how expensive is it to cross the channel. Permit + pilot + other associated costs. Not including accommodations and travel.
pilot +/- 2000 pounds for a single
other fees about 250 pounds
current exchange rate is +/- 1.50 dollars/pound
