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?

Leonard,
Yes, I am doing the Swim for Life in Chestertown. Are you? I have never done it before. Do people wear wetsuits? How is the water? Is it choppy like the Bay? I hope it's a fun, easy swim. That will be most welcomed after the Choppy Bay Swim! I have heard it is a great event, but I don't know much else. I plan to do 5 miles, but it will depend on how I feel this Saturday.
Hope to see you there!
Diana
