    Boy, I second everything everyone said. Just getting to the start line is a victory, and I really believe that. And, trying to do sports on a carb-restricted diet? I don't think I could do it!

    Best wishes...I think you're tough.

    Congrats on finishing (heck- congrats on even starting an xTerra). I'm not brave enough to tackle an off road tri, so you have all my respect. You weren't feeling well, but didn't give up. So proud of you!!!
    I'm glad the new diet is temporary. We all know you can't train and eat like that and expect your body to perform well. Hopefully when you get past this initial phase things will get better.

    Nice work!

    I've always wanted to try an XTerra! Someday ...

    I can't beleive you did all that with the restricted diet. I would have fainted at the start line

    Congrats! Next race I am sure you will feel more pep as you won't be on the restricted diet anymore - yay
