Expert  1038   Noosa |  Subject: Raby Bay 17 October, anyone doing this?Hi, Just downloaded my sprint tri plan and will be entering the USM Tri at Raby Bay. This will be my first tri so I'm a bit apprehensive but also quite excited! I'm a lifesaver so can cope with the ocean swimming and have done a few 1km ocean swimming events, I also run and recently did my first half-marathon (Gold Coast) so the running should be ok. My main area to work on will be the bike, I've only done the occasional ride on a mountain bike with the kids so I've got a bit of work to do!!! How much riding do you need to do per week to get to a reasonable level? Cheers, Dave |

I live about 1.5k from the start and the bike course passes about 300 meters from my front door. If my calf improves I will let you know. BTW the swim is in a canal so no waves to contend with and the run and bike course are fairly flat. just one very small hill on the bike. Good luck anyway. Derek |

I had planned to do the December one too, and still might, but I've got an awful feeling that it will be the day before after my works Chrissy party. I'll let you know. Have you not thought about doing one of the Robina ones? I might do one of them instead of the Dec one if I can't do that. Let me know gow you go. |
