Pros/Cons for a SwimRun Event in September.
A swimrun is a multiple-stage competition which involves participants running and swimming over a race course that involves multiple swim and run stages. Typically participants do not change clothing in transitions as in other multi-sports such as triathlon. All equipment used by participants has to be carried all the way to the finish line. - Wikipedia
1. Pro: Novelty
2. Con: Unfamiliarity
3. Con: Need New Equipment
I would need shoes that can get wet and drain. Maybe something from this list.
4. Pro: Easier to Train For
I'd have to increase my run and swim endurance only.
5. Con: Safety
Running in a wetsuit? Scrambling over wet rocks? Swimming with a load (however the shoes are meant to come along).
