open water swim training

[Pika]

Both DH and I ordered one- thru the triclub here-Quintaroo ultrafull- I think that is the model- anyway it is the entry level one.
I had trouble with the sizing because my height I was in the middle of the range for large and med but I was just on the edge of the weight ( top end for med and low edge for large) - I didn't want it loose around my scrawny neck- but wanted some room for my thighs-I decided to throw caution to the wind and get the med- hence the regular updates with the weigh -ins.
I'll let you know if it fits when it arrives- I liked reading all the hints in the other thread- oops- guess I should have replied there!
sorry for the hijack- I'll stop now.

I've been thinking about it, and unfortunately I can't see doing this without a wetsuit, even though I really need to practice in open water.

But rocknroll girl, maybe you, me, AllezGirl and others in the area can get together when the water has warmed up a little bit for a practice session!

OTG,
I would love to, any time. We can gather the troops, and I can pass on anything that I learn at the sessions.
