https://community.usms.org/swimming/f/open-water-training-and-technique/25092/ows-in-near-pittsburghWill be visiting family next week and wondering if there are any groups/areas for OWS in/near Pgh. Will also take suggestions for Masters practices, but have 10k in a few weeks and need the open water time, if possible.

Didn&#39;t get any open water (did Kennywood on Friday), but I did swim with Pitt Masters on Mon and Thursday.<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/267616?ContentTypeID=1Fri, 30 Jul 2010 08:57:42 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:a0b4cc79-487e-425d-a9cf-41a9df669e90sarah_qWe swim on Fridays at 6:30 p.m. in the Allegheny. Mick&#39;s link has the info. Make sure you check the thread for the weekly OWS. No swim when the river isn&#39;t clean. Pgh has a combined sewer so after a rain the river is not fit for swimming. I post if the swim is on or not every Friday. I swim with Team Pitt on Mon and Thur at 5:45 a.m. You can come on a one-day basis for $5. The coach is Jen and she is fantastic.<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/267561?ContentTypeID=1Fri, 23 Jul 2010 08:08:41 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:60204fce-cbd5-409b-9e79-180422c87842Former MemberPittsburgh Triathlon forum has the information you need about several OWS. Friday in the Allegheny River, Saturday at Moraine State park, etc. <a href="http://www.pittsburghtriathlonclub.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=6">www.pittsburghtriathlonclub.com/.../viewforum.php</a> Also independently, you could go to Raccoon Park or Crooked Creek Lake to swim.<div style="clear:both;"></div>
