Thank you for all of your help. I completed my first sprint
triathlon on Sunday, July 26, 2009. It was the Swim for Smiles event in
Chapel Hill, NC. I had a great experience and this was a great event. I
finished without stopping and ran a much faster run than I expected.
However, the bike was the most challenging thing I have ever done. Never
sign up for a triathlon with the name "hil" in the city where it is being
held. I definately took my bike to speeds that I have never been, (one
participant said he went about 45 mph), and at one point actually yelled
out, "what the heck am I doing." That being said it was an experience I
will never forget, and I am already contemplating another. (with less hills). Thank you for all of your advice and fast responses.
