What to train for
Train in ocean swell so surf entries and exits feel routine, and practice sighting over chop.
For the 3-mile, build steady continuous swims of 90 minutes or more.

La Jolla Cove Swim training questions
How long should I train for the La Jolla Cove Swim?
Most athletes give a open-water swim eight to sixteen weeks of focused training on top of an existing base. The coach counts back from your actual race date, so if you have less time than that it builds the best plan the remaining weeks allow rather than pretending you have longer.
What is the La Jolla Cove Swim course like?
The one and three-mile courses start and finish at La Jolla Cove.
How cold is the water at the La Jolla Cove Swim?
The La Jolla Cove Swim does not publish a typical water temperature. The athlete guide gives the wetsuit rule for race day: check it before you plan your open-water sessions.
Do I need an account to get a La Jolla Cove Swim training plan?
Start as a guest and save a free account later. Your coach writes your open-water swim plan and adapts it every week as you log your training. No card.
