I probably should have asked this earlier, but I just thought of it tonight...

In the morning, I'm riding the 10 mile bike leg of a triathlon with a relay team. It just occurred to me that I'll be waiting around for my partner to swim 1/3 of a mile before I hop on and start busting a gut for 10 miles.

Do you just stand around during that time?! Or can you ride around up until the start and/or while the swim is going on in order to warm up? Heck... how long does it take the average swimmer to swim 1/3 of a mile?
