Open water wetsuited swimming.
All swimmers used their own well-fitting wetsuits (5 mm maximum thickness in accordance with World Triathlon guidelines7) and were free to supplement additional neoprene hats, gloves and booties as desired. A safety paramedic attended all swims. Swim distance was self-determined
