I am doing a triathlon with a 500 M swim. Water temp this weekend is going to be 68 which is chilly but certainly something I can handle for 500M. I think I am just going to wear jammers because I will save 30 seconds (atleast) not having to change out of a wet suit. Thoughts?
(I'll hold 1:15 /100m in jammers I figure).

In Colorado 68 degree water temp is down right tropical. I don't think the time advantage of a wet suit can make up for the longer transition time in just 500 meters. Ditch the wet suit.
Do you know what the temp is like at Horsetooth Resevoir? Is it freezing all summer? I used to live in Ft. Collins and thought I saw some swims there and that looks like a great excuse to go back.
