Tris with men? And fins question.

[Offthegrid]

I've never tried an all women's tri..can you give feedback on that?

The all women tris are awesome -- it's very girl power.

Danskin is great, especially for first timers. They do a big cheer with each wave before the swim -- "let's go girlfriend" and "I am a great swimmer." If you come in last in that race, they give you a huge basket with $200 in exercise equipment (I never finished last, though).

It was just very empowering. And I didn't worry so much about my weight because it was all girls (and there were some bigger than me, too). I guess that's really the reservation with going co-ed is having to dress in tight tri clothing.
