DISCLAIMER: Open-water swimming is inherently dangerous. Open-water swimmers risk drowning, hypothermia, hyperthermia, heart attacks, panic attacks, cramping, jelly fish stings, fish bites, boat or jet-ski collisions, collisions with floating or submerged objects (including other swimmers), and other calamities that can be injurious, disabling or fatal! The "West Neck Pod" is an informal association of open-water swimmers who swim "outside the lines" with no lifeguard protection, it has no formal membership, organizational structure or legal identity, and its participants, including the author of this blog, make no representations and assume no liability with respect to its group open-water swims. All swimmers who participate in West Neck Pod group open-water swims do so at their own risk. Be careful out there!

Register Online Now: The 2012 "West Neck Swim"!

The Huntington/Cold Spring Harbor 1- and 2-Mile Swim at West Neck Beach (a/k/a "The West Neck Swim") has now become an annual event at this exceptionally beautiful open-water venue on Long Island's North Shore -- the home beach of the eponymous "West Neck Pod." Last year's inaugural swim was hugely successful, with 189 swimmers competing, and in anticipation of a greatly increased number of applicants for this year's event, to be held at West Neck Beach on Sunday, June 24th, registration is limited to 300 swimmers!

On-line registration is now open for US Masters Swimming ("USMS") and USA Swimming. Follow these links to register now before the June 19th deadline:
