I’d love to swim more but long distance swimming gets so boring 

Unlike when I go on runs or walks I can’t wear my AirPods while swimming 

Playing music by the pool is also pointless bc I can’t hear the music underwater / distracting to others 

Any advice on devices I can use effectively underwater?

i’m going try the public pools

wish me luck — my gym doesn’t have a pool 😢

generally speaking in nyc it’s usually via a gym membership/ as an amenity offered by a condo

what’s a good place to swim in brooklyn?

Nothing like “omg I almost got run over by a jet ski” or “omg jelly fish” to keep things exciting.🤣🤣🤣 can also invite oneself to one of the many junk boat parties along the way to break up any monotony!

No device advice, but open water swimming with a group makes long distance swimming doable for me. There’s a group that meets every Saturday at one of several beaches in HK and then does a 3-5km swim usually from one beach to another and back. 

Good company & ever changing marine environment keeps it entertaining.
