I am doing it.  Sprint distance also.  I am coming back from an achilles, foot, and broken collerbone injuries.  Should be good tune up for HITS Marble Falls and Captex.  I hope weather is good.  Corpus is usually windy.  I plan on going fishing in the bay afterwords for reds and speckle trout.

I will have a beef team shirt on.  Good luck and see ya there.

To all:

For the sprint what do you guys think about a wet suit.  I plan to check the water temp.  If I was doing Olympic distance no problem.  It is pretty comical to watch me get out of a wet suit.  For 500m its got to be cold.

 

See in Corpus. 

Go Cats.

Good question Wildcat. I'm going to see if there's an online source for CC bay temp. I bet I look more comical than you getting out of the wetsuit.

Looks like water temps are currently in the mid 70's.

Hope to see you there.  Good luck.  It will be a quick race.  I know a few people in Corpus weather has been a little windy.  This will be my first Tri of the season.  Had a good Statesman 10k  now need to follow up.  Doing laps at Zilker today.

 

Good luck everyone.

Jackie from Austin. 

I'm in for the Olympic.  Working finish line for the sprint and packet pickup on Sat afternoon.  I've been hot in my long-sleeved wetsuit in the Quarry this week.  I'm considering not wearing the wetsuit, but I probably will for buoyancy.

Email from race says the current water temp is 79 - warm!
Forecast is for 20mph SSE winds...

Only 3 waves for half-distance too- open, all men, all women.

I guess its a very small field - I'm not used to that.

Hopefully the chop won't be too crazy on Sunday.

Anyone know how the swim course is affected by wind?

Just got back from Corpus. Crazy a** wind. Swim cancelled for all distances. Got 2nd in AG, probably because there was no swim. It was the right call though. Oh well.
