Triathlon

Last Monday a good friend of mine somehow managed to talk me into taking part in an upcoming sprint triathlon. The only competitive swimming and running I've ever done was back in elementary school, so my goal is only to finish without drowning. I've been jogging for some time now, so the 5 km run doesn't worry me nearly as much as the 500m swim in frigid water. Oh, and the 22 km bike route that is "scenic yet challenging".
