I can't believe I actually did it. My first triathlon was yesterday in Panama City Beach. I finished in 1 hour and 49 minutes.

 Thanks to all who posted tips and comments about their experiences. I have been involved in sports since I was 5 but this completely different.

I had to laugh at my self. Even though I am sore as can be, I caught myself looking for my next event to sign up for. (Guess I am hookedLaughing)

 Anyway, thanks again!!

Congrats on your first finish! I am sure that you worked hard on it and enjoy it.

Keep in mind that tri's are like tattoos, once you do one, you start planning your next one!

Good luck to you.

Congratulations Triathlete!!!

It's a great feeling, isn't it?  And very addicting.  I did the same thing, I took the following Monday off and was right back training on Tuesday, and I think by the end of that week I had already registered for my 2nd sprint tri, which is coming up this Saturday.

The sad thing for me, is that living in NC the weather is starting to get cool and this event coming up is the last one in this area that I would be able to compete in (there are one or two IM or HIM, but I'm not ready for that yet).

Anyhow, congrats again on finishing your first triathlon ad here's to many more!

Cheers!!!

Way to go - Im guessing one of the first things you did was try to find another race you could do before the season finishes... CONGRATULATIONS!!!

You guys are right! Signed for another tri next month. I have a new goal. Ironman by the time I turn 40. That gives me 4 years to train. Keep posting the advice and ideas, it is what keeps me in line. You guys are awesome!!! Thanks
