While driving back to the hotel after the Chesapeake Bay Swim this past Sunday, we started talking about the different states in which we'd done open water swims. The criteria was that it had to be an organized event (not a workout and not just hopping in a lake). Oh, and it had to be a swim event; not a triathlon. I was allowed to count both Minnesota and Wisconsin because I did a swim where we started in Wisconsin and finished in Minnesota.
Here is how many states are on my list. How many are on yours? This may be a good goal - to try to do an organized, open water event in every state!
Arkansas
Florida
Illinois
Kansas
Maryland
Minnesota
Missouri
Nebraska
Texas
Wisconsin
...and one territory: Puerto Rico
(I've also swum meets in most of those states, plus 6 more not on that list.)
We should do a separate thread for meets. I'll bet there are some people who have swum meets in almost every state.
