I say try it. What is the worse that can happen. I did my first duathlon recently and I started training about 3 weeks before the event. I had not been on a bike in years and I did the race with a mountain bike. But I finished. That was my sole goal. And as another poster stated, my legs felt totally like jelly.

You can do it! You get credit just for trying. And you also have to remember adrenaline starts pumping when you see the other racers.

Let us know how it goes if you decide to do it.
