Swimming

Cos i iz skinny fucker. No matter how much cold water acclimatisation I do, will never manage sans wettie without putting on 6 stone.

Ditto. A couple of years ago I did a 3.8k race non-wetsuit in water temps that reportedly in the low 20s (FAR warmer than the channel). I was c.20% slower than my wetsuit time and when I dragged myself out the water I have a half hour memory blackout which apparently culminated with a mate wondering where I'd got to and finding me sat in my car not knowing where I was. [/csb]

NB - this was a 2 person relay, my mate had booked a solo but couldn't do the whole thing after an op screwed his training. Here's the track: http://cspf.co.uk/swim-routes/OWI3N2JjZWZmNmEzMTBlYTNmNjcyY2U3MDY2YTU0ZTiYgvtfO0ic4I0kjLn2KG1hpvOBeG31Sf0PtB0RIa6ZGgsO1NFlvBolx7SL2b2mb0qHT4Jmzcf7MeUqS65KnNnQuQARZBZnzK4zUTGlmkBWcaklxCf9lK1ua9g2N2tHNFPlHd5taXwJP0rY4XHKFisM

Presumably this is the GPS track for the support boat? Is there any way of seeing which legs were done by each swimmer? How did you share the swimming?
