Well good on ya' Kev. Fasting / farting (not) was the connection. The absurdity of both . Anyway. Me a a supposed topic starter of a tri thread. What a really, really, really unfair misrepresentation of my true feelings - a cruel injustice ?

Seriously, I did read somewhere where overseas swimmers were taking on about seven litres of air in their gut to help with buoyancy. So over to those who get bored with just one discipline .

Wouldn't want to try it if you were a "smoker".

"Lighting up" could take on a "(w)hole" new meaning.

Wouldn't like to Fart in a wetsuit. I would float on top of the water and look like a massive marker bouy!!!!!

hmm... not sure where this air would be stored or how it is inserted, but i find the 4-5mm wet suit is good enough to stay on top of the water if permitted on the day. when i wear the wet suit i can feel my feet kicking/splashing on top of the water. without a wetty, i get along like a seahorse
