First tri was yesterday, caught the bug and debating doing Presidential Lakes in 3 weeks

I'm doing the same exact thing and I came up with this plan just last week.  Up until now I've only done sprint triathlons and I'm planning on doing the Presidental Lakes Olympic in 3 weeks.  DQ Events puts on good races and they are much smaller and more low key than the NJ State Tri.  I've done their other races (Parvin, Hammonton, Marlton Lakes) but not Presidental. 

So to go from a sprint to an olympic in three weeks I'm picking up the training.  I'm not worried about the run since I do many medium distance runs and races.  I'm going to spend the next two weeks in the pool and biking.  Rode 43 miles on Sunday after the NJ tri on Saturday.  Plan to swim two times a week (usually only go once a week) and bike 3 times/week for a total of 50-70 miles per week.

DQ Events typically do not sell out until late, if at all, so I plan to wait until one week to go before signing up.  At that time I can assess where I'm at with race prepareness.

Oh, I miss read your first post.  You did the Olympic at NJ State!  You shouldn't have a problem doing another one in three weeks. 

One thing that is attractive at Presidental Lakes is that it is a closed bike course.  Should be a good race.

very relative question. Without knowing other info (seeing your training or knowing how the race went) hard to say. If you feel good and you've trained fairly well, then generally speaking, why not.

It's the third day after the triathlon and I feel great.  I trained for 5 months for the olympic one on Sunday and feel I am ready for more. 

I will def. be signing up for the Olympic one on August 12. 

Thanks for your opinions.
