    The list in one of the postings seems pretty extensive.It seems like alot of things to bring for training. I'm from Florida so can someone recommend a list for a girl.no offense but most of the clothes I have consist of a bikinis and beachy wear.I don't think that's going to be warm enough for my classes um however,could you give me a better idea of your general winter wear. I don't know how cold it gets up there near upstate ohio.

    jeans,warm sweater or heavy hoodie, tshirts, socks and tennis shoes or ankle high boots
    rain jacket, gloves ( like garden or work gloves) cap, neck scarf. The wind in northern Ohio is humid, it cuts right thru you.
    That's for fall. For winter add long johns, heavy gloves and windproof coat. Check Charharts catlogue for the type of coat.
    Just check put what peeps are wearing in different areas.
    Good luck

    Well it is Summer...You can't really go wrong with shorts, boots and a T shirt. Bring sunscreen, if your classes are anything like mine- you'll be using an awful lot of sun screen.
