I'm an experienced marathoner taking my first go-around at an Ironman. I am going to invest in a tri suit (and a wet suit), but I'm baffled as to what to get. I'm leaning toward one piece. I'm a size 4 or so but bigger up top so I'd rather get one with no built in bra since I have to wear a sports bra anyway.
I'm looking at the Sugoi Blast or the Zoot Ultra Racesuit. Thoughts on either of these, or another recommendation? The latter option has a built-in; would it work to cut it out? I'm aiming for comfort - zero chafing, quick drying, and enough padding to get me through 112 miles on the bike (and preferably not so much padding that I feel like I'm wearing a diaper in the run).
On the subject, if anyone has wetsuit thoughts, I'm all ears (if anyone's done Ironman Wisconsin, do most people do sleeves or sleeveless?)
Thank you in advance for your thoughts!
