Just beware of the swim start in a sprint. I am an experienced triathlete and was still swept up in the eye of the storm at the only sprint race I tri'd this year. People will gun it the whole way, knowing that they only have to do it for 10-15 minutes. I was gasping and coughing and couldn't break free, leaving me breast-stroking for a bit. Make sure you start out on an edge, if swimming is not your strong suit...
