I’ve been a swimmer my whole life. Always pool swimming, however during the pandemic I have become an avid open water swimming fanatic. I usually swim 15 plus miles a week and love the open water. My longest swim to date is 5.6 miles and I am hoping to do a couple of marathon swims on my own and possibly the Catalina channel as part of a group. I usually swim 5 or 6 days a week. Many days I will swim twice in the open water. I feel so fortunate to be able to swim as much as I do. Being in the ocean gives me a sense of hope and faith, especially in the morning I see the sunrise.
