Does anyone have any good tips for swimming an open water race in water that may be 87 or higher with air temps potentially in the 90's?
I am wondering if it would be a good idea to take a course of antibiotics prior to the race or just after..
We have had record high average temperatures for May and June in VA making swimming pools and lakes like bathtubs, the later without chorine.
tips please... Send rain... Send clouds.... Send ice....
I am going to take a scale to the Chris Greene Race (2 miles)
I'll ask swimmers to weigh in prior to the race and as soon as they get out before hydrating.
I'm guessing now that the water will be 90ish and the air a cool sunny 85.
I didn't get any guesses as to how many pints of water will be lost in the pool of my prior post. If you are reading this go there and guess! I will post the average result after the race.
