  • Need some advice regarding wetsuit swimming and how long I can stay in the water for. I know these things vary from person to person, but as I am fully acclimatised to cold water now, I managed 1km in skins yesterday in 8c at the lido and could probably have gone a bit further. Would it be feasible to do 2k in the same temperature with a 2mm wetsuit, gloves and socks on? How do you know when you are getting too cold in a wetsuit, it's obvious when in skins as when it stops hurting I get out :D

  • Sounds feasible to me but I'd build up. 1.3km, then 1.7km perhaps and see how you feel when you get out.
