Just signed up for my first "real" triathlon, the Newport Beach Tri on Oct. 5 (I have previously done a reverse with a pool swim). Anybody else doing this race?

Water temps are higher than normal this year. They're usually mid to high 60s in early October; temps are bout 5-7 degrees above average right now, so I'm thinking I can get away without a wetsuit? Any thoughts on that? Water will probably be around 70. And it's in Back Bay, which is calm and, I think, a touch warmer.

I welcome any tips from anyone who has done this race before.

This past spring I realized a few of us were heading in the wrong direction physically. We were getting together for poker games and kids’ birthdays, but that was it.

I went down to the beach the day before to scout out the course, and it was glorious...the sun was out, the sea was as smooth as glass, and only a hint of a breeze was blowing. “Perfect,” I thought.

As a triathlete, there is one acronym that you just can’t fathom ever having next to your name in a race report – DNF: DID NOT FINISH.
