So YAY! I'm signed up for 2 sprint tris in Utah. My first is in a month and, oddly enough, is a pool swim. 300M (hah!) s-laps through a pool, 2 women at a time.
Have any of you done a swim like this? Any tips? Especially on turning (I gather sighting won't be an issue).
Any recommendations on outfit? It's 300M swim, 12.75mi bike, 2.9mi run. I don't own a one-piece tri suit, so I was thinking sports bra and tri shorts to keep it simple. Or sports bra+tri top. Or swim suit (I'm still in love with these suits y'all recommended) and then pull on bike shorts in T1? Or HTFU and do the whole thing in a swim suit - but then I will have thigh chafing.
Ty for all your help - always.
