    For me I'm just excited. I have nothing to prove to anyone. I have trained all year by myself and it is a celebration with all. My goal, Not to die and just finished. The race people will tell me if I'm taking to long. Cheers

    Yesterday I signed for my first triathlon in Brighton, which is on 18 September, and I'm already anxious because I never swam in the sea and losing my breath after 100 meters in the pool, but I believe if I practice every day ill be alright and confidence will come eventually.

      Careful , you must be able to swim continuously for half an hour before joining iron man. As long as marathon and cycling.
      I advise you to explore Vedio son how to prepare for iron man and download a schedule and stick to it. Good luck

    I have signed up for my first marathon in 2 weeks time for which I am woefully unprepared, but most days I can tell myself that I am going on an adventure rather than participating in a race. Might not be for everyone, but for me, that idea is a lot more appealing. 😁

    Cool to know the opinion of an expert and i do agree with the guy in everything. Also, i think nerves is something we learn to deal with more experience. I remember my first triatlon i didnt sleep at all the night before and i thought i was gonna drown in the lake. Surprisingly i enjoyed it a lot. So i think anxiety is something you have to assume is always gonna be there, otherwise competitions would mean nothing to us and then why doing it?
