New to OW swims longer than what's in an Olympic tri and am registered for 2 this spring. I'm worried about frying my back and legs. What is a good sunscreen/block that stays put for a couple of hours? Thanks in advance. You guys are so inspiring (and funny in places).
Ellen - Assuming the race is in the morning, if you're only doing a 5K and don't burn like an Irishman, you're probably fine with a regular sunscreen as you'll only be in the water for no more than 1h30m. I use Water Babies Pure & Simple SPF 50 and it works like a charm. See you at Nats!
