The Swimming Coordinators have been working extremely hard to accommodate everybody swimming the Open Water on Saturday. The new schedule is now ready and it will allow for a break in the 400 free event to allow more rest time between both events.

i just sent/received email from Pierre Cloutier on this mess with different waves if there are more than 80 entries in an age group (there are 4 men 1 women). He says he is going to try and keep us all together. the 97 women and 110 men may be tougher to accomplish, but he wants us all to race at the same time for a real race. steve

In Italy they did swim the younger age ( through 40 I think)waves on Sat. the same day as the 400 free. I was in the 50-54 and swam on Sunday.

So far its a 1 day deal on Sunday the 10th. If there are lots of entries they will have some waves swim on the 9th. That will eff up the 400 free... Plan to be ready on the 9th.

Does anyone know if there are going to be two days of open water or only one--and if two, who will swim on day one and who will swim on day two? I am trying to figure out some travel plans. Thanks.

there are 2 parts to this: 1) are you signed up to race? because you cant if you are not signed up. 2) even if signed up, are you going to show up and race? A1: yes A2: have no idea and may not until that morning. imho, they are running this OW so much better than it was done in italy. no fake entry times. no seeding of waves based on fake entry times. 1 wave per age group. steve
