Need wetsuit advice

elleshelley — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 23:33:23 -0400

I'm doing Try Andy's Tri in Sugarland this sunday - and the cold front is coming through in time to make the predicted high in the low 60s... I'd like some advice on whether I should try out my wetsuit for the first time in this race.Â The water will probably be below 76 degrees - but it is a very short 300m point to point straight swim in a small manmade icky lake ...
