Let’s give it up for open water swimmers!
The thought of swimming for a few minutes, exhausts me, and I’m in shape.
Then the thought of swimming for 10 minutes makes me even more tired.
Throw in swimming for 2 hours, and I’m about ready to curl up in the fetal position. I was a sprinter when I ran track, but I still don’t think I can run for 2 hours!
So seriously, we all have to give it up for open water swimmers! I cannot fathom doing any kind of physical activity for that long. When I ran track I also didn’t have to deal with the wildlife like jellyfish and sharks or the elbows and knees of competitors. Anything goes out in the open!
Just a sidenote: I am currently communicating with a National Team Open Water swimmer who wants to join the Swim Stars network. So there is a possibility that y’all will be hearing a lot more about the sport in the near future. I’ll keep you posted!
