Well.... I'm in

I signed up for my first tri today. It is the Women's Gold Nugget. While I was at it, I also signed up for the Women's Time Trial. I did it right away this morning, before I could back out.

I'm excited and nervous at the same time. I hear both are great first timer events.

Any advice on either?

My motto: Slow and Steady wins the race.
Who am I kidding, my competitiveness will get the best of me. I swear I'm going to try to participate and not race it as far as the doctor knows.....:rolleyes:

Way to go! Congrats!!! :D I don't really have any advice because I'm signed up for my first tri this year, too. You probably can't go wrong with first timer-friendly events and those look pretty cool. I know how you feel about being excited and nervous at the same time, but I feel more excited when I think about race day. Woohoo!

My motto is "start slow, get slower", not sure if you really want to follow that.
Good luck and enjoy yourself.
