No but they advise it. You can just turn up on the day for both technique and fitness sessions if there are places available. You just have to turn up early.
I think it's cheaper if you book in advance for a block of sessions.
What do you mean, it's a bit early! You is an ironman

Thanks, Miss lippy and manda r.
That's what I did at London Tri last year - breast stroke with head out of the water. Wasn't last out of the water but not far off. Entered the 2011 race the following day - don't like to be beaten by anything. Least of all a drop of water

Suit was great in the race swim today (750metres). I let the other people go then swam and caught up with quite a few. No problems with excessive water penetration (put it on better, plus went for a dip before the off), but was very unbalanced/dizzy during T1 - had to hold onto the racking bar to get my feet out so I didn't fall over. Good swimming!

I've been reading a book this week (Can't Swim, Can't Ride, Can't Run by Andy Holgate) that suggested ear plugs stop you feeling dizzy in T1 or just post OW swim.
Anyone tried this?

I'm guessing that's a trick question and I should?
He mentions RW but not Fetch.
Erm....am I being completely thick? It wouldn't be the first time. Or are you just accusing me of plugging the book? I work in a bookshop, me. I'll plug any book
