I'm doing the Chesapeake Bay swim on Sunday. I have no idea what to expect. I'm planning to not use a wetsuit but I noticed most swimmers had wetsuits last year...not sure why. If anyone has done this swim I'd appreaciate any tips/advice. This will be my longest OW swim to date.
Congrats to everyone who did the swim! It was tough, but a great experience for me. I went a LOT slower than I expected...but at least I got to finish, which was my goal.
On a side note, does anyone know where to get those "4.4" stickers (or it might be a magnet....) for your cars? Or were those given out only in years past or something?
Thanks!!
Congratulations on your swim! This year was my 6th time and definitely the most challenging conditions.
They have sold the 4.4 stickers at the race in previous years along with previous years shirts, etc. I have no idea if they were selling them this year because we took off shortly after I finished when the storm came through.
