Subject: A couple questions about an upcoming race... I'll be racing in an oly distance race this weekend.
It's likely that the water temperature will be above 78, but below 84 - putting it in that zone where wetsuits are allowable, but participants are not eligible for awards, etc. Now I'm a pretty MOP triathlete, and this is a big race, so I'm not likely to be seeing the podium. My goal time is 3:00. Under these conditions - would you wear the wetsuit or not?
I'm also trying to decide whether I should switch my registration from AG to Athena.... I registered AG figuring I would be below Athena weight come race day. I'm pretty much right AT Athena weight right now. Athena would place me higher in my group, but still probably not podium-worthy. For this race, logisitcally, it might be easier to stay with the AG status (35 min. later swim wave start = less rushed to get transition set up, etc. ). So I'm not sure there's really any point to switching to Athena. Any thoughts?
