Comments: I started in the middle and as close to the front as possible.Did this race to practice ocean swimming for IM Plymouth relay. The start was pretty rough as I expected. Alot of kicking and hitting. Just kept my pace and right after the first bouy the pack thinned out. Googles fogged up after the halfway point and I had to stop and de-fog twice. I did draft for a while, but then sped up toward the last 200. This was a great race! What would you do differently?: Get there earlier, get goggles ready!  Post race
Warm down: Ate a granola bar, had some water and then headed home. Event comments: This is a great race to do if you want experience with ocean open water swimming. It is in a protected bay so chop is minimal. Last updated: 2008-08-04 12:00 AM

I arrived 10 minutes before the start of the race. I had done a group workout in Hopkinton and got lost on the way to the race. The traffic in Salem is fierce.
Getting in my wetsuit as quick as possible
