Hi,
I am thinking of investing in a wetsuit. Any wisdom out there? What style is the best...long, short, sleeves, no sleeves. Where is the best place to find one? Does wearing a wetsuit significantly improve your time?
Last year I did the 1 mile swim in the Chesapeake Bay. Most people had wetsuits. The water temperature was 72 degrees, and I was not cold at all even though I did not have a wetsuit.
Any thoughts?

Hey Swimmy!
Have you considered doing the Swim for Life, June 18? It is 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 miles, in the Chester River. This will be my first year, but I have heard that it is a great event and very well managed. And the proceeds benefit some very worthy local causes.
I plan to be there. I would like to do 5 miles, but it will just depend on how I feel after the Bay Swim, since it is only 6 days later. But I have also heard that it is not usually as difficult, and the people are great.
