Does anyone know of a 'reasonable' conversion factor for open water swims wearing versus not wearing a wetsuit? I know...lots of variables including individual capabilities.

Alex's best 1500 in the pool at the time was near 15:15 (in this neighborhood). He reported being disrupted by the limited range of motion that a wet imposes compared to swimming without. He hated swimming with a wet because of this.
If the suit fits properly then motion should not be limited. But folks at that level are VERY particular so who am I to say they are wrong!
