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 am hoping on Kentucky - Ohio River Swim, Michigan - Swim on the Moon, and Wisconsin - Madison Two-Mile Swim events in August 2013 (all on the same road trip). Events swam in Texas
California
Arizona
New York
Maryland
Illinois
Florida
South Carolina
Virginia
Colorado
Louisiana
North Carolina
Minnesota
Idaho
Oregon
Alaska
Mississippi
Oklahoma
Nevada
Connecticut
Pennsylvania
Massachusetts
Missouri
Ohio River Swim in Kentucky and Swim to the Moon are on consecutive days this year. You really going to do both? I've thought about it, but not sure I have it in me with the drive in between.
