    More people are taking to rivers to cool off this summer, especially because outdoor swimming allows for social distancing.

    For the last 10 years, Portlanderย Willie Levensonย has been encouraging people to swim in the Willamette and Columbia rivers. Hisย Human Access Projectย has cleaned-up and opened Audrey McCall Beach and Poetโ€™s Beach downtown, as well as installed ladders to allow people to swim off the Portland fire house dock.

    He said thereโ€™s been renewed interest in swimming in the river due to pandemic-related closures and people looking to spend time outside.

    โ€œYou know itโ€™s a celebration of how far weโ€™ve come with our river that people are getting back into it,โ€ said Levenson.

    โ€œAnd ultimately, when people get into it, they care more about it and are inclined to take better care of it.โ€

    Olympic Swimmer Dylan Carter from Trinidad and Tobago shows you how to improve the breathing in the Butterly stroke. The hardest part is getting the breathing down. Otherwise, it can affect you in the last meters of the race as you don’t get enough oxygen, and your legs and arms start to burn. So it’s really important that you get that oxygen and that quick breath with enough air to finish your race! Three things to remember:

    1. Keep chin and lips low to the water
    2. Breath in the middle of the stroke
    3. The breath shouldn’t use a lot of energy

    A Long Island woman who was seen jumping into the water near the Statue of Liberty in her TikTok video says she didn’t think about whether the water was full of bacteria, but she also said she doesn’t regret it and wouldnโ€™t do it again.

    The video of Donna Paysepar diving headfirst into the Upper New York Bay last week certainly got the attention she wanted it to receive, with more than 3 million views on TikTok and millions more on Twitter. Most people thought Paysepar would get sick from being in the water that is often associated with sewage matter and general nastiness from decades of pollution.

    But Paysepar says she’s doing OK days after she took the plunge in front of Lady Liberty. Theย 20-year-old student and food bloggerย tellsย NJ.comย that she was out on a friend’s boat on Aug. 12 and just wanted a cool video that will get likes.
