awesome...what was the flow of the river? what was the slowest time......just wondering if my fat ass could make it

https://youtu.be/bzJv-SZ41II seems like the guys really crank up outta the water....sighting and breathing at same time did quick 30 min swim.........felt tired but good to shake lactic acid out

no sharks in that lake....LOL

finished the jocassee open water swim yesterday....choppy as hell with fair bit of current. 15 min slower then last year 1:40:00. for the 2.4. I wasn't the only one...top finisher last year was 53:00 this year was hour something still fun though. very clear water...temp was nice and cool. must...

not on my bucket list.... but rad for sure!

How far along will she be in october? signed up for the Jocassee swim again in september...

no go for me. ABSN program will be full tilt then. I am gonna do the jocasse swim again this september though. Im sure she will crush it. Ill be curious to hear what is like with downstream current.

a friend who has done 10 mile swim says its normal fro first 30min to feel oppressive. He advised me to kick less right out of the gate and glow slow for first 20-30min. Also breath very often....every stroke, 6-8 times before switching side. I also drafted a couple of peeps until they started...

I think I could have handled a 5K this go around. It takes me about 20-30 to get into a really good rhythm. 10k would crush my ass at this point......there is time though. my avg was 35min mile, but i actually got faster on last half of swim

i tell you what Gary....some of those people had no business out there!

nice 10k is on my radar next

side note: hydrated heavily for 2 hrs prior. Yogurt, 2 bannas, one kind bar and a sweet potato over course of 5 am to 9 am start. Hit a GU pack at start. still had gas left at end......

1hr 24 min, 2.4miles current at parts was a slap in the face fun though. gonna do it again. Top finisher was 53 minutes. took your advice Gary. Event was started in groups, which mine was last. I stayed outside in back away from madness. As they started to slow i worked my way up. passed 40-50...

no hells mouth? he's gonna have to start training.

Wow...small world. 100 miles in 48 hrs is insane. CNN has a pretty documentary on it

That is unreal ! Thanks for the heads up. I still wonder about how often she would eat and drink.... The Diana Nyad story is equally impressive. A lot of support to fuel her effort

1hr 55 I feel like I need some water if I'm gonna go go past 2hrs. I should be good for the 2.4 distance though. I wonder how the one does a 10k swim without support

well I'm good there i guess 1:40 2.9miles did another 30 minute in pool to round up took about 20min to get in the groove...felt as though i could go far past the 2 hour mark.......but its a supervised thing so I had to get out. Listening to music really put me in the zone. 500 meter...
