wetsuit ideas

"really freakin' cold" -- that's a relative term, 🙂

Lake waters around here in the late summer are generally not that cold,
but I still wore a full body wetsuit as did the majority of the
athletes at the FederalEscape triathlon (July timeframe) at 5 Mile Lake
which was 74 degrees on race day. August leaves even more time to warm
up the lakes.

I was searching to see if Lake Whatcom had online buoy reports as with
Lake Sammamish but I didn't find anything.

Anyway, I use the Ironman Instinct wetsuit and have been happy with it
for these races -- it also worked well for the Nautica Malibu Triathlon
ocean swim that I thought was really cold (58 degrees) and colder than
the lakes around here. 🙂

bakers tri in Bellingham not too "open water" I guess but it is freaking
cold in that water. I think I decided on a QR Quick John, anybody have a
bad experience with it. I picked the quickjohn because I get really hot
really easy.
