I've been bitten by the triathlon bug.
I've really tried to avoid this. The gear, the expense, the absolute insanity of some of the tri-folk I've encountered online...
"No, no, no," I told myself, every time I started thinking about what it might be like, remembering my ocean/lake swimming and my hours on the bike in high school, the glory of it all... "You're too slow, and can't swim that far anyway."
Except I've gotten faster, and have been swimming longer and longer...
Sigh.
I can't seriously do anything about this until after marathon training anyway, so right now I'm just going to let The Dude fix up his spare bike for me (because he just happens to have an extra woman's frame lying around, go figure), and keep on swimming. But next year...
