I am planning on doing the CHesapeake Bay Swim in June. I noticed from previous pics that most wore wet suits. I know last year the water was one of the coldest (64) but normally hovers around 70 when the race is. Do they wear these do to jelly fish (someone said that). I have a wet suit as a "saftey net" but normally don't wear it unless the temp is under 60. Any thoughts from those that did it?
As a side note, this is double the mileage than I have done in 60 degree water.
Thanks
