I am doing my first triathlon tomorrow morning (sprint). It's one of the last of the season as I'm primarily a cyclist and semi-regular parkrunner, so after a few glasses of prosecco, signing up seemed like a good idea at the time...
I am bricking it. Not in a useful way though, since my brick sessions have been er, not entirely as long or as frequent as they should have been. I am quite fit, if more tortoise than hare.
Any last minute newbie tips for transitions / etiquette etc.? Or reassure me it'll all go fine and I won't go haring out the transition wearing the wrong gear. Alternatively, amusing stories about first triathlon also welcome....
Even my DP (also competing) has said my swimming is 'pretty poor in terms of pace', so I have accepted that last place could well be the outcome (but that's okay, isn't it? It's the taking part? Argh!).
