? of the Day: Is there a difference between training in the pool vs. the open water?
I use both, but mostly the pool. Living up in New England, we only have the summer months to train outdoors. I use the pool to work on pace by watching the clock. Practicing technique is very important, working on body position can keep injuries away. If I had the opportunity to swim in the open water everyday, would I? Probably not. I feel, I get a better workout in the pool, but I would love to spend some time in the ocean on the weekends. It's all a head game, this is mine....what's yours.
