I also ran back from Lidl
Now to run to Pets At Home (or whatever it's called) - won;t be running back from this one as kitty litter is too heavy.

I rented a wetsuit in my first tri season too, LD
Actually, come to think of it, mine might fit you. I'll check out it's details and get back to you with make and sizing etc and see what you think. It will save you some cash.

That said, I have peed in it more than once *shuffles feet*

:-) That's what was putting me off the rented ones Bint but LN's post has reassured me. I don't honestly think I would fit into yours - I'm much fatter :-(

It is too big for me, LD.
And it does get cleaned.
And I swam in the docks - there are things in there far worse than pee!

:-) Ah well in that case, I would be interested. Though why did you buy one that was too big? They are supposed to be pretty snug, aren't they?

That's good RRR - sorry about house.

Stander, hope you feel better soon tho it's nice to have company on the bench.

LD, I did the swimming leg of a team tri a few years back, rented a wetsuit but actually wished I hadn't - have you used one before? As I was raised swimming in the coastal waters of the North, I don't think I would have needed one and just found swimming in one really awkward and nasty. Mind you, a proper triathlete will probably come on and say there's a risk of death if you don't wear one. The tri I did was in Eton Dorney lake in Sept.

I hired a wetsuit once for pot holing. I peed in it *is proud* I almost poo'ed in it as well but that's another story.

Back from a very wet 5 miler, good job skin is waterproof cos nothing else I had on appears to be.

It wasn't too big when I bought it, LD.
I got smaller!

That is great news, RRRR :-)

There are rules in tri about how warm the water has to be for a non-wetsuit swim. I prefer to swim without one too!

Nice running, PP :-)
