Ironman 70.3 - Buffalo City 2017

[KnavishStream]

I am not sure if there is already a thread for this event, if so, I apologise.

 

This will be my first Ironman 70.3 as well as my first Triathlon, Training has been going well and feeling ready.

I have a few questions re the event and triathlons in general, any help will be greatly appreciated:

 

1. Are trisuits necessary or is it possible/advised to just run in your cycle shorts and shirt?

2. If Wetsuits, on the day, aren't compulsory, is it still advisable to wear one? will it help with speed or tamper with it?

 

I have now forgotten my other questions! will post later when i remember!

 

Thanks in advance
