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?
Maybe in the future the 1st wave should be include any swimmer who has the potential ( pool or ow) to swim under 1:10 (or maybe 1:05).
This would give all fast swimmers the chance to race head-to-head. If passing slower swimmers is a problem it would affect all of them the same.
This would be easier to moniter and create a cool finish to watch.
I don't know....just a thought. :blah:
