ZEASORB QUICK TIPS: WHAT TO EXPECT FROM THE OPEN-WATER SWIM
Making the transition from pool to race doesn't have to be stressful
For most participants, the open-water swim is usually the most foreign aspect of a triathlon. Many athletes train and practice in indoor or outdoor swimming pools, and the differences between swimming in a pool and swimming in open water are sizable.
One of the main differences is that most swimming pools are chlorinated, making it easy to see and more gentle on the eyes, mouth and stomach.
