I know it may sound daunting or even a bit scary…and trust me if anyone can relate its me but give it a try! I had never in my life done an open-water swim and then last year about 6 weeks out from race date I decided to do a tri-a-tri and holy hannah did the swim rock my world and not in a good way…but I did it and finished the race with a huge smile on my face already contemplating which ‘races’ I wanted to do this year.

 It still challenges me each week but I am getting stronger a length at a time and am now up to 1000m:)

So if  you are up for the challenge check out your local public swim times, grab your suit and take the plunge!
