Hi All - Having done a sprint last year at 6 weeks notice, i guess i kind of caught the competition bug. Not to say i actually train, but loved the comradeship etc that you get on race day (or the 1 i have experienced).

Ive now entered the Henley half IM - for reasons i am not too sure and have a few questions - Has anyone done this event?

My main concerns are the usual ones - finishing last, not making the swim time etc but more specifically i have little OW experience - will i need a different technique with a wetsuit in OW compared to pool swimming? I am fairly competant but usually dont push myself past 500m due to boredom, i guess that will need to change rapidly.

Any other advice more than welcome!

Thanks
