Ok, so the more they email me, the more I get nervous about the water temp. Last year it was 69 which stung to get in, but it made for a nice swimming temp. By the end, though, my fingers and toes felt a little numb, but that could have been tired (??).
But this year, it could be up to 10 degrees colder?! What to do when the coolest water I can find here in Cincinnati is 80?
I'm nervous as well. I live in Florida and the coldest I've swam in was 69 F last year. Anything much below that and I don't know if I can hack it. Thinking wetsuit division as well, but we'll see come race day.
