I've been swimming for 5 months. I had to learn to swim, then breath bi-laterally. I have swam in open water four times. I have a kayaker next to me so I don't swim in circles. I can swim a mile in open water. I swim three days a week. A mile two days and a half mile on work week days.
Am I ready? I've never swam like this and am very anxious. Also what should my training be like the week before my swim? What should I eat?
