Member 6 Austin, TX |  Subject: My First TriNot only am I doing my first tri on Sunday, but this is also my first every post to a message board, so forgive me if I do something wrong. I am doing a sprint distance tri as part of a relay team. I'm the bike portion. I've been training for 3 months, but I am sooooo nervous, intimidated, sure I'll do something wrong, you name it. But, I found this site, and it's been great so far. I guess I just have to get thru Sunday, and then I'll calm down.... |

At this point, we are just hoping to finish before all the volunteers have finished packing up and left, and not even before the 13 and 14 yr olds who are competing!! Is it bad to just be looking forward to the loaded baked potato at the end of the race?? |
