Well, I just completed my first Triathlon. I chose to jump right in and do the Olympic Distance and am glad that I did. I finished in 2:51 and was expecting to be around 3:00. I definitely think I have caught the Tri bug and will be doing more in the future. Now I have to buy all my own gear instead of renting/borrowing things from friends. Thanks for those of you who gave me some advice at the beginning of my training. Now I have to focus on the Chicago Marathon.

Congrats steevbr!! The tri bug is catching. Good luck with the Chicago Marathon. Hopefully it is cooler that last year. You might consider bringing some of your own drinks.

Nothing to it, but to do it
