The Community Answers “Who is Your Favorite Person to Swim with and Why?”
Every open water swimmer has unique memories, experiences, and preferences. In the “Ask the Community” series, we like to ask swimmers interesting questions about their experiences.. We recently asked the community “who is your favorite person to swim with and why?”
