I have been swimming for some time now. I usually do about 4000 yards four days per week. I have never done a long distance swim. I'm not sure why but I have been tossing the idea around in my head to swim a 30-38 mile Fresh water swim at the end of August. I'm not concerned about the time it takes. I'm thinking I would need a support crew, nutrition while underway, lights etc. etc. I would appreciate any feedback and insight you could lend regarding workouts to build up, experiences, recommended suit, food, etc. etc.
Lets hear it.

I am considering Gibraltar Strait, Tsuguru Channel, Boston Light, Loch Ness and many others over the next 2 years....................................likely an attempt at Cook Sttait and North Cnannel are in the mindset for 2012-2014 to complete the Ocean's 7 andthen the Still Water 8
I like the idea of knocking off a bunch of big swims in rapid succession. I suspect it won't be long before we see someone go for the O-7 in a single calendar year. Logistics would be the biggest obstacle.
