Would anyone like to share goals for 2011 too? My bucket swims this season include the Boston Light Swim (August) and the Great Chesapeake Bay Bridge Swim (June)... might try swimming the ASA Lake Travis Relay (October) as a solo...
The new season is nearly upon us, and I imagine we do have a few southern hemisphere visitors to this board.
Where and when does your 2011 season kick off?
I am waiting to see the date and details set for Rice Women's Twin Lakes Open Water Festival - mid- to late April, and definitely the Cap 2k sponsored by Sandy and Keith Bell and their American Swimming Association at Lady Bird Lake, Austin, TX.
How hot is the water in Ft. Meyers?I'm not entirely sure, but a friend of mine said mid-80s likely. I'm in total support of USA Swimming taking water temperatures and safety seriously, but they've known about the likely temps in Fort Meyers for a long time and have done races there before. I just wish -- especially in this era of higher plane fares -- they would've made the change of location decision much earlier.
