So my plans on doing the JCC Tri (too soon) and Desert Grande Tri (too far for my family to come watch) are a bust...but thinking of doing the YMCA reverse Tri Thanksgiving morning...who is in?
This appealed to me on many levels...I think doing a reverse as my first official Tri will be fun, good opportunity to get my feet 'wet', it is a bit further out compared to the other ones, and with my funds...can only manage so many races seeing as I am doing IronGirl and Fiesta Bowl Half mary in Dec, and PF Changs in January. AND, I am still saving up for a decent road bike...oh and did I mention I found a deal on a Cyclops Fluid 2 Trainer that will further deplete my funds - yikes!
Hope to hear that many of you are going to be there...
any tips on a reverse tri? Last thing I want to do is go out too fast on the run and get hurt and not even make it to the bike portion. Thanks!

I will be there. I love this race.  It will be my 3rd year.  You should totally go all out on the run..it's only 2 miles, then leave it all out there on the bike. No need to save your legs because you don't really need them to swim! So just go all out!!!

Yeah, that is the one I was thinking about. I totally want to do that one. I have to see what is the plan with the family before I commit to it though.

I was going to do this race. Not Now though. I'm pending an MRI on my left knee and the Dr. said I'm probably out for the rest of the year.

I'm hoping to have my surgery asap so that I can start the recovery and be done with it.
