Subject: RE: Last Chance Try Rend Lake, IL I did the HIM last year, a nice fast bike course (63 miles ) and nice run through the park trail, but the swim was quite brutal, biggest swells/waves I've swam in. I thunk they were very close to pulling the swim.
Having said that, the water temp was ok, low 60's. The air temp out of the water was more of a problem for me, maybe mid 50's, took a long time to T1 with numb hands and took a long time to dry out on the bike. |
