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....
hmmmmm. And yet you claim to be able to do a 6000 yd workout without a toilet break. Or were you just bragging to the bladderially challenged (me)?
I doubt you'll wee during a 2 mile race, so if you retain the wee weight, and subtract the mass lost due to snapping turtles (14 of them), you will end up with the following:
Actual weight lost = predicted weight loss + retained wee - Snapping Turtlage
3.142 = 3.417 + 0.001 - 0.276
The water will be too hot for the snapping turtle's. They will be all out cooling off on a log. better add that .276 back in. Turtle soup is a great treat by the way.
