Anyone know some open water spots around those areas?

Caesar’s Creek is the popular tri spot.

Can also do East Fork, Deer Creek, Buck’s Creek, Buckeye Lake, etc. (HFP race locations)

I think there is a TRI at Buck Creek this weekend…check HFP’s website.

Hueston Woods is another choice

Google the Columbus area tri club. They have a nice swim in a local quarry. Usually hit that when I’m there on business. Central Ohio Triathlon if I remember correctly

COTT.us Central Ohio Triathlon Team.
i’m the swim coordinator. We swim @ Alum Creek Beach now due to issues with the quarry and residents. mondays at 6 PM.

Alum is pretty easy to swim at and its pretty shallow if you parallel the beach.

from orange buoys to orange buoys is about 700 m.
