    I've been advised to post this here instead of the triathlon forum as I suppose you really can't beat local knowledge...

    I was wondering if anyone is doing the Skerries Aquathon on August 22nd? What's Skerries like for swimming - is it normally calm enough?

    Thanks...

    OP - That course is fairly sheltered unless you get a northerly or north-easterly wind (unlikely at this time of year).

    Thanks for that... still a bit nervous of sea swims for some reason - silly but there you go!

    What is an aquathon? Long swim race? Might let the people in Photography forum know about this as they have a "whats on" so they can get out with their cameras
