Endure It! Open Water Swim Training!
Tomorrow evening Tuesday July 8th at 6:30pm endure it club is meeting for an open water swimming training session at Ohio Street Beach in downtown Chicago. Open water swim training is of course an important aspect to any triathlon and not easily accomplished here in the western Suburbs. The beach is located just north of Illionois street and Lake Shore Drive (roughly 600 N Lake Shore Drive). Plan on swimming for one hour, afterwards we will meet for dinner and drinks. I was at the beach yesterday and I would recommend wearing a wetsuit, my guess is the water is about 70 degrees.
Please respond to this email if attending so I will have an expected number for a dinner reservation.
Please understand there are many ways to access the beach depending on where you are coming from as well as numerous parking opportunities. With this in mind I will not provide directions and parking recommendations or any other advice on how to make this trip.
I hope everyone has a chance to make this unique road trip to the big city and I am sure we will all have a few laughs!
