The water temperature will be far too high for a wetsuit, so I'll be competing in my Speedo. Word on the internet is that it's a fast course--because it's a cable swim (great explanation of what that means on the US Masters Swimming Discussion Boards), the water's supposed to be warm, and be really flat (no chop).
In May, I completed my first 1 mile swim (with a wetsuit, in 66 degree water) in 33:14. Hoping to come in at 35 or under on this one (being conservative with my goal since I don't know how much of an advantage the wet suit actually provided)!
Full report when I return home! But be rooting for Team Goldfish around 10:30 am ET when the 1 mile swim starts!
