Great advice, ya'll! HILARIOUS about eating plums before the swim...I think I'll be fine with my usual coffee, bagel, peanut butter, and banana finished 2 hours before the swim. :)
The race sounds like so much fun. Swim25 (are you 25? I am), you're going to fall in love with open water swimming. I did my first OW race in a lake two years ago, and I like it more and more every time I do it, and as I try more and more challenging races (I've since done a swim in the Atlantic ocean and across the Chesapeake Bay).
Ron -- is the Garmin 305 waterproof? This the Forerunner?
