Would you? Could you? Should you?
One word: chaffing.
…but the water was cold!
No, No, and NO!
Why would I want to subject innocent people to such cruel and inhumane punishment?
That does not help your fellow female competitors.
There would be a lot of shrinkage coming out of the water…

Why not?
There is nothing more natural than being nude.
Hey, I’ve run in the Figleaf 5K which is a “clothing optional” 5K run through a nudist colony up in north Georgia. That was actually a lot of fun.
Look, I like being naked as much or more than the next guy - but running? Have to draw the line at that. But for those into it (“not that there’s anything wrong with that”) - more power to them.
My Thoughts:
Naked Swimming: No problem, have done it and liked it. Although always a bit nervous about some adventurous fish taking a nibble on the low-hanging fruit.
Naked Biking: Can’t see ever doing this. I mean you at least need pants to keep the gear in line. Perhaps women could be a different issue. Could you imagine the posts on this fourm regarding seats / positioning if we biked naked?
Running Naked: Okay - that’s just a visual I just don’t need. Naked running is just not right. Too much jiggling of body parts that we do not need to see.
…and which option did you take?
not me. gravity is not your friend and some things shouldn’t be seen while you are running about.

Dude, the boys were bouncing everywhere!
Running nakes isn’t fun, you tend to smash thing that shouldn’t be smashed.
Biking naked…I’d rather have a lemonade enema
Swimming naked…sign me up, just make sure the finish is in the water so no one has to deal with the “trust me baby, is shrinkage”
I don’t know if I’d even watch a naked triathlon…cause most the people that show up would be the same ones at the nudist colonies…and 99.99% of those you DO NOT want to see naked!

I’d want running shoes. Does that count as nude or not?
I once participated in a nude swim race in South Africa. It started at midnight, went around inside the harbour and the finish line was on land, on stage in the yachtclub.
Came second. Got the pictures to prove it. And no, it´s not going up here

It might be hard to find volunteers for the bike transition…kj

Would you? Could you? Should you?
They have naked crits…
I’m sure you can find some people willing to do a naked tri…
