Tri-suit is OK!

I just heard good news from Charlotte, one of the coordinators for the Sprint Tri in London. I don't have to wear a wetsuit. I have a tri-suit that I was hoping to swim, bike and run in but I got a bit nervous when I read that Blue Seventy wetsuits would be there and it sounded as if we had to get one.

My problem with a wetsuit is this.
Options are limited here in Budapest. The one time I looked, they had random sizes and the quality isn't great. If I'm going to get a wetsuit, I want one for the long haul. Then I thought of ordering one from the States but someone suggested otherwise since every wetsuit fits differently and you really need to try it on.

Well, good news. I don't need a wetsuit for the London race!
She said the tri-suit I've got is fine! Woo hoo!!

Did I tell you I found the Paloc Triatlon on July 26th in Northern Hungary? :D

Ask me after I finish in London if I'm really going to do this second sprint-tri.

you will after you recover for about a week or so, you will want to do another one. i guess for some there is a major let down after these things so be mindful of that as well.

I think ya'll are right - I'm probably going to go for it! Plus it's another distraction so that I don't feel as homesick :D
