Subject: RE: New York City MarathonCongratulations Steve and Good Luck! I'm sure you will beat your old time. It’s great to read about everyone’s success and achievements. Well done to you all. I’m going for my first ever open water swim. It’s the Jack Rabbit Jerseyman Open Water Swim at Spruce Run in Clinton, NJ on May 7th ; sprint distance of 0.6 miles. I’ve gone that far in a 25 yard lap pool but never in open water. Honestly, I do not expect to finish without having to swim the breast stroke or grabbing hold of a buoy at some point, but if I don’t try I’ll never know. I also brought my first wetsuit. I feel like a sausage wearing it and every unflattering ripple shows, but when in Rome… Stay tuned. |
