Okay Ladies,
My first race of the season (and of my life for that matter) is fast approaching on June 7th. I am nervous but excited. I'm just looking at the swim as a warm up giving me a chance to hammer it on my bike and hopefully still have legs leftover for the run!!! I've heard that spinning in high RPMs before I get off the bike will help.

I need tips on transition. I've heard all kinds of things.... My cycling shoes are the 4 strap Carnacs that I just love but those will take a few seconds to put on.

I HAVE to wear socks for my run or I will get blisters so is it better to put socks on at T1 or T2?

Also ladies, what do I wear? Now I am NOT wearing only my bathing suit for the entire race. Is it better to get a tri suit or just put on my cycing shorts over my swim suit and be done with it?

SO many questions....SO little time. HELP, Ladies!!!

Many, many thanks!
Vanessa
