We are stoked about this event coming to Louisville. The area of the Ohio River where you will be swimming is just upstream from the Mcalpine Lock and Dam. From what I've heard they plan to raise and lock the dam for your event. Though this will not completely stop the current it will significantlty slow it. Hope this eases your concern a bit. Looking forward to your visit.<BR/><BR/>Bradtgibradhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14093682951096628182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21465133.post-31451576356464770152007-04-27T15:21:00.000-07:002007-04-27T15:21:00.000-07:00I don't know much about your upcoming IM but the t...I don't know much about your upcoming IM but the thought of swimming up river, up any river, sounds a bit like work to me.<BR/><BR/>P.S.

(BTW, Winz's elevation profiles look far less severe).<BR/><BR/>It's the swim that has me bugged. 1.2 miles UP river. Not to worry, my coach's response to my generally freaking was, "Just draft off a couple guys, you'll barely notice the current."<BR/><BR/>Where will YOU be swimming on race day?Iron Polhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15491605781681633405noreply@blogger.com
