THANK YOU SOO MUCH! You all have really helped me feel better. I am still nervous but, you have given me a lot of confidence and great tips thank you!!
Rocknrollgirl: I dont have a wetsuit... I really dont have the money to get one either.. do you think it will be really bad not to have one? usually with swimming its good to be in colder water.. but then again not ice cold.. maybe I'll look into renting one..
HappyAnika: My leg for the bike is a little over 13 miles. And it makes me feel good that you are doing your first sprint soon too GOOD LUCK WITH THATAnd as for my new bike I think I finally found the bike that fits me best. I really like it its a Felt womens series 4. And it has two sets of brakes, ones on the top bar and ones on the regular place by the gear sifters (if that makes any sence) I really like it and its in my price range and I really like how it feels compared to the others I've looked at.
Wahine: Thanks you are right I need to just enjoy it and have fun. I kind of have a competitive nature, and I was worried that since swimming is my strong point that I would push to hard in the event. But I really like your thinking I should just relax and let my body do the work that it already knows how!
Roadie Gal: Thank you for the advice it helped alot, I'm starting to get more excited than nervous.. which is a VERY good thing. And thanks for the list I think it will really really help!!
Thank you all if you have any more advice feel FREE to give it I appreciate it soo much.
One more question.. what would you all suggest wearing? I really like the Desoto Rapida tri tank or something similar.. I'm just worried about the bra situation.. I'm a little larger up top and I'm not a fan of ANY movement while I run.. I'm just conerned about support issues and I'm sure there wont be enough support but it doesn't look like another sports bra would work very well because of the design on the back.. what do you all think, if you have seen it before and know what i'm talking about..
THANKS
