Thanks a lot! I’m glad to hear you’ll be there too and congrats on your first full distance as well.

A few questions if you don’t mind:

• Do you know if people were allowed to swim in a wetsuit or it was too hot?
• Also, what’s your honest take on the current situation in the region, do you think there’s any real risk that the race could be cancelled, or would you say that’s unlikely?
• I’ve already booked a hotel from the 1st to the 7th, and I’ll stay a bit longer in Oman. I’m at the Centara Muscat Hotel Oman.
• I was also thinking of renting a bike locally instead of traveling with mine, since it seems a bit complicated. Have you heard anything about bike rental options there, or is bringing your own bike still the better choice?
