Hello,
I was just wondering with the heat wave last week, does anyone have any info on water temperature in the canal for Challenge Roth ? Is there a website where I could check it ? Been searching a bit but haven't found any information.

Water temperature update:
The current water temperature in the Main-Donau-Canal is 25.4°C. Of course, the temperature in the Canal can change fast. However, due to a damaged sluice gate water movement which lowers the temperature is currently limited.
Therefore, it is important to be prepared for a non-wetsuit swim for the first time in our history. For the safety of athletes, wetsuits are not permitted in temperatures above 24.5°C. We’ll keep you posted on any updates as they happen.
As the other reply said, it is *currently* just above wetsuit temperature. However the weather is moderating this week and I suspect it will cool a few degrees. I am bringing my swimskin just in case, but I am fairly certain we will have wetsuit temps on race morning.
