I'm doing the Chesapeake Bay swim on Sunday. I have no idea what to expect. I'm planning to not use a wetsuit but I noticed most swimmers had wetsuits last year...not sure why. If anyone has done this swim I'd appreaciate any tips/advice. This will be my longest OW swim to date.

Tough day for everyone. Hot air temps. Hot water temps. Wicked ebb current between mile 1 and 2. Lightening. Yikes. Regardless... Another great event by Chuck, Linda and crew.
Sad: Grahame Rice (age 43, from Annapolis) died during the race. He had done the swim in 2008 - not fast but he completed it.
