I saw the CGI post about their OWS in Jersey and have two thoughts; 1) There are limited dates, and they dont' work well for me. 2) It's in Jersey.

Any swims in or near the Philly area?   Also open to anything near Wilmington, since that's where I work.

Thanks!

In the past High road cycles has a couple per year at Lake Nockamixon however I don't see them posted on their site. There is also Blue Marsh out towards Reading. I have swam there. There is another lik relating to this topic which can be found here: http://www.beginnertriathlete.com/discussion/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=205406&posts=17&start=1

I've "heard" that people will swim in the Schuylkill when conditions are "Green" on Rivercast. Technically it's illegal but I've "heard" that people sometimes enter the river just north of Falls Bridge and swim up river from there. Apparently there's a gravel/dirt parking area just above Falls Bridge. Of course no one I know would ever do anything like this, but if they did I'm sure they'd have a kayaker along for safety. Never OWS alone!
