Thanks for the update. Missy and I only have long sleeve wetsuits, so we are contemplating what to do about it. We are not leaving PA till Friday around lunch time so we have to think about it and maybe get more updates
It's going to be close given the warm-up Friday and Saturday, but I've got my fingers crossed for you guys.
I jumped into the Gator Half for the same day on a $50 deal where you don't count. I'm going to train through the swim, bike and 4 miles of the run, then pull the plug. No taper (I have a 10K trail race the day before). I am also hoping for a wetsuit swim to practice for Grand Rapids HIM. Fortunately, since the Gator Half is not WTC, the USAT cut-off of 78 applies instead of 76.1 so I am probably good.
