IceCreamMan Posted December 5, 2016 Author Posted December 5, 2016 Thanks for the feedback, does it still manage to keep your core warm or would you have to go for sleeves to get the additional warmth? I have not tested it in cold conditions but a full sleeved suit would be warmer without a doubt. I aint to concerned about that though as I can handle cold water. If it gets too cold they will inevitably cancel the swim. I had very little seepage as it is. If you are only going to do tri's in ZA a Long John is the way to go. imho.
IceCreamMan Posted December 5, 2016 Author Posted December 5, 2016 well done for trying... I did the dash and felt sorry for everyone doing the ultra. The heat was a killer. Ultimately the heat was at the centre of my misfortune. It must of been in excess of 30 degrees out there on the bike and going at the speed I was going at very little breeze to cool one down. Will do more, but shorter distances. I am full of scrapes and bruises but thankful no injuries so all in all excellent training.

All is good though but must say I enjoyed every minute and I'll definitely do it again next year.
