You have "attitude" training, and that's what counts! (Plus a few thousand miles in the pool and a heroic 25k ...)
I hope you go and enjoy the beauty, etc., although I understand Georgia has its charms.
:D
LOL! Well, the race director reviewed my credentials and very reluctantly and with reservation approved me with the comment that Dive Rescue would be better served handling other emergencies over my possible hypothermia. Can't say I disagree and I can't say that really sold me on the swim.
