So a friend and I were talking at work the other day. Somehow the conversation turned to the idea of participating in the Chicago Triathlon this summer. The more I think about it, the more I am seriously considering taking up the challenge. I looked up the specifics on the Triathlon and I think I would probably try the "Sprint" competition (.75km Swim, 22Km Bike, 5K Run)
Now I am not any kind of fitness freak, but I am in reasonable shape. I have been biking for the last couple of years and can do 30-40 mile rides realitively easily, so I think with a little training I could get in to shape.
Has anybody else participated in a triathlon? What was your experience?
Let me know what you think.
