I cant believe im asking a tri question...

[al320]

I might get talked into one, a sprint, I think. Swim is in a long course pool.

So, um, what do I wear that I can swim and run in? I have boobs, I cant run 5 feet, let alone 5k, in a bathing suit and shorts.

Thanks.

Gonna need to get yourself a tri suit, or top/bottom. It's annoying but there's no real way around it IMO. I wore mine with a sports bra.

Yeah, what @sessalee said.

If you want to save $ (if you think you might be a 1 and done triathlete), you could at least try what it feels like to wear sports bra + swim suit + shorts, but a tri top + tri shorts (my preference) or a tri suit is what you'd probably be most comfortable in.

Ok thanks ladies.

I do all three legs in said tri outfit?

I have no answers, but I knew this day was coming for you I'm staying firmly on the just running bandwagon, but it is fun to see people cross over. I think you will do awesome since you have being doing so great with the swimming!

I have done a few sprint tri's and grabbed a cheapie one piece from REI and wear it with a compression sports bra. It seems to get the job done for shorter distances. I honestly have no idea what I would do at the longer distance. I am like you and can't run 5 feet w/o a moving comfort bra on

I have impossibly broad shoulders and a decent pair of boobs, which makes finding a tri top that fits and supports the girls the holy grail for me.

What I do is wear tri shorts (I found a pair from Sugoi that I really like), wear a swimsuit top (similar to this) as a sports bra, and then a tri top over it.  It works for me.  The tri tops that have 'built in bras' are a joke for me.

You can also wear a sports bra under your tri suit/top - it's what I have to do. Just make sure to swim with it all on beforehand to make sure your bra doesn't hold a pool worth of water.
