Neck rash
I seem to have started getting wetsuit rash/friction burn on the back of my neck after open water swim sessions. So far I’ve always used Daisy’s Surf Cream to prevent chafing on my neck- but it feels like it’s maybe not cutting it any more. Looking for ideas: what do others do? It’s worse in salt water obviously, but I also had some in fresh water.

@Ewa Pisarczyk if this is the stuff you helped me with on Saturday it was brilliant! Thanks

@Alan Cardwell better than last year 😅 not the biking I was hoping for but it was all fun!
Where to try wetsuits
I need to change wetsuit as fit is poor on current one and need to get one that fits properly. Is there anywhere in Scotland that has good suits to try on? Currently have Huub Agilis Brownlee one which is too short in torso, back fills with water and shoulders feel restricted. Any help appreciated

I don’t knoe enough about quality of different suits but Lomo in Glasgow have ones to try on.
Last week's races and this
I didn't post up last weekends events but last night we reviewed the yoof stuff poolside with @Ian Hamilton and @Fergus Currie . The British Super Series had a bit of a squad with our youngsters out in force. It is elite in nature so maybe not super interesting for us normal people but it shows the level possible when you are up for it. Israel and Rory ( now coached out of the national centre) we're up against the seniors and both gave good accounts of themselves with Israel taking P3. Rory is still building post REDs and we know he will find full form again in summer. Daniel, Finlay and Joe went in Youth B. Tier 1 race Daniel took P7 and in Tier 2 Joe and Finlay took a 1 2 for GTC! Closer to home @Catriona Tennant continues to impress with a nice AG win at the Thornhill 10k. Big swathe of ' sportive' rides so as these are not races there are no results as such but some great rides across the board. @Clark Pheely , young Veitchy and Alan Kennedy conquered the monstrous Fred Whitton. @Beppo Buchanan-Smith @John Taylor @Mark Brown all having a day out at the Etape..great training miles in the bag. Over in Bute Maeve back to tri action post Hyrox and @Craig Taylor first tri of season. How did you go craig? This weekend is all go again: Daniel is taking on the Islands Peak race. @Beppo Buchanan-Smith @Catriona Tennant at Southport tri @Nathalie Brohan at the Gralloch @Zoe Newsam and @Mark Brown at the Bealach sportive And a big squad at the Outlaw half. @Chris Bryson @Angela Paterson @Duncan Martin @Craig Hogg and Jill Robbie

Bute went well, bit slower than I would’ve like in the pool but bike and run felt good! Bit of an injury or something to sort which is unfortunate but didn’t affect me on the day. Lovely wee trip over on the Ferry and cracking weather!
Training Snacks
Hi all, I’ve been trying to figure out some good snacks to have whilst out training or for race day, to supplement gels. I’ve tried out rice krispie bars, rice cakes, Stryker rice bar, Waf-fuls, and god knows what else. They all have drawbacks for me ao looking for advice from the athletes in here 🙂 Currently trying some banana lunchbox loaves, which are really easy to eat, have 19g carbs but I’m a bit worried about fibre. Any recommendations?

Tried the split of solids first, then gels today. Didn’t have time to prep so it was x2 pan au chocolat, x2 Welsh cakes (bit crumbly after the first), and x2 gels. Worked well, so I’ll keep trying this strategy 👍
Favourite Race format
Dog walk musings. Today there are a plethora of races and formats to play with. Back in the early 90s there were much fewer opportunities to have organised fun. The race brochure for the first M dot race in the UK profiled all 5 IM races on the go. Yes 5. No Challenge, No PT100..no social media nada. So what's your favourite race format?

I’ve liked the variety of Solo point 5 and Aviemore, but past this year I think I’ll try to do shorter, and more.
