Shaula and Tryingtri,

I'll be really interested to read how it goes for both of you!

I'm doing my first one in September. I think I've been overthinking the need for Things but it seems like tri shorts and a top would be just fine. I did go to a tri store to check out apparel which was MUCH better than looking online (would buy online but nothing is like seeing things in person especially if you don't know what you're looking for).

I'm sure you will have so much fun! What type of training are you doing?
