As a result of my decision to train and compete in IronmanUSA 2008, I have gotten a wetsuit for my swims. Actually my folks got it for me (very nice). Tiffany has contended that wearing a wetsuit feels a bit like cheating. I never really grasped what this meant until last Sunday, when I wore my brand new suit in the race. It’s weird but, you really feel like you’re floating on top of the water and you slice right through the water. If anybody’s either considering a purchase or struggling with the swim, a wetsuit is definitely a worthy purchase.
Here’s a photo of mine from Quintana Roo.
I went with the sleeveless version because I didn’t want to restrict my arms/shoulders as I have experienced some swimming related shoulder pain in the past.
