Based on what you've written, I'd say you're golden. Like someone else said, just make sure you're running when people are looking.
You'll have to check the race rules on the water shoes, I'm not sure about that.
I second the suggestion of getting in an open water swim or 2 before the event, even if you only go out for a little splash for 10 min.
Have fun!!!

Go for it. You have to get the first one done and under your belt. You can do it. I do agree with Wahine, get in the open water, even if only for a little bit.
Heck, you can run 3 miles....you got this....

Thanks so much for the support ladies! I'm going for it! I know I will regret it if I don't. I plan to get there early and go for a dip in the lake before the real deal. I just don't want to come in last!!! Thanks again and I'll put a race report up, my first, yay!

Cindy - I think you will do fine
There are people who do sprint tri's who fully intend on walking the 3 mile run. There are also people who do it as a social event. My guess is you will be tons more in shape than a lot of people there! Good luck and I bet you will do great!!!!
