I did one the next week, I think it was. A friend peer-pressured me into it. You're doing a sprint, right? You should be ok in that time frame. Your transition times will get shorter in the 2nd one, also.

I think you should go for it but just don't over-commit, if that makes sense. I tend to see things and think "wow, that looks cool and I'll sign up for it" then realize that I can't possibly train for everything I've signed up to do.

(Case in point, I did a half-marathon last weekend. I signed up for a sprint tri this month and I have little time to train. I also have a 5K this month but that's nothing. I have another tri in August, a 5K in Sept, and a marathon in Oct. Oh and I want to do another half-marathon in Nov.)

It's addicting. I think what you want to do will be fine though.

I've had friends who have gone to NY for tri's I've only been there once and got lost every time I took the subway. I didn't get lost in the city, just in the subway stations.
