Well I just got home from the Running Shop. I did it! I registered for my first Tri. Crazy that I did this with less than a week before the week but I kept telling mysefl that if I didn't think I was in shape I wouldn't have to do it. Well not anymore. I paid for that bitch and I am gonna do it. The only thing is it asked for your 300 time and I had no idea of even a bad 300 swim time so the lady said to leave it blank. It is pool start and it determines when you get to start based off the time you listed. So I will be in the dead back.

Don't worry about being in the back. Just do it and finish. You are racing against the clock.

For your next tri, (and I am sure the tri bug will bite and you'll do another)
you'll be able to figure out your time and the areas you want to work on.

Have fun!!!

Nothing to it, but to do it

Hey, that's great! I know you are going to do fine and have fun doing it too. :) Like beads said, you are only racing yourself so no worries. And it is addicting.

I have always been in the back of the pack during the swim and in the end of the swim. And then all those swimmers get passed on the bike.
It ain't over till I spin the pedals!
Have fun in the race and enjoy it!!
