Hey everyone,
Decent swimmer here getting ready for a few Tri’s this Fall. Prepping up for Olympic and Sprint distances. Pool swims are solid, but I am incorporating more open-water swims. If you know of any existing groups (I am aware of 757 TRIdents) and can post them, I’d appreciate it! Or feel free to message me if you have a private group. Also, if you want to do a swim with me, just message me and we will get in contact or set up a time to train.
Thanks!
There are a number of places to swim. There is usually someone swimming “The Sticks” behind the McDonalds on Shore Dr and West Neck, Fat Frogs Tri swims there Sunday mornings, there is a group that swims there Friday afternoons. There is a Facebook Group TEAM (Togthether Each Achivies More) that swim the James River in Williamsburg. There are a few private lakes that you need to get invited to.
Thanks!
Yorktown Tri does some swims in james river, and Buckroe beach, theres a FB page called Buckroe swims. recently seen some swims being attempted in newport but water quality is suspect, lots of swims in teh oceanview area wtih fat frogs. this time of year sucks with jellies so prep for that. especially in buckroe fort monroe area. If youre on the vabeach side of the tunnel just stay there the traffic isnt worth it
