KSH - 2007-08-24 3:39 PM Since that race, I purchased the Zoot Zenith. A top of the line wetsuit. I haven't raced in it yet. Again, maybe my times will be smoking fast and I'll be in awe of my wetsuit swimming abilities. ..sigh... have you trained with it in the pool for any signficant distance? You can't just zip it up on raceday and expect to have some magical effect. But as it stands, I hate swimming in one and it doesn't help me very much. as soon as you figure out that it can knock 5-10s per 100 from your race times, you won't hate it quite so much!
Well, I did some pool swimming with the wetsuit, but having to push off the wall really affected the fit. My goal would be to practice OWSing with it.
Maybe if I got an opportunity to practice in it, it would work for me and not against me.
Honestly, I don't care THAT much. I know, shocking.
I already place top 4 in my AG out of the water. And my run is so pathetically slow, it doesn't really matter if I place 1st in my AG out of the water, because I lose it all on the run.
So... I think it's fair to say we have beaten this horse to death with way too much detail and thought put into it.
Have a great weekend everyone! Especially those RACING in IRONMAN KENTUCKY! You are going to rock it!
