Okies first of all.. did I even spell Triathlon right? xD<br><br>Well.. we have one coming up at the end of november and our school has decided to be involved.. though its an open event..<br>And.. my friends have convinced me into doing the cycling leg as you can have one person for each leg. <br>Thing is.. I am riding 30kms.. (18.642miles) and I only have a month to train.. 2 weeks of that will be taken up by study and exams :S<br><br>So things I am asking are..<br>1. Anyone ever ridden that far or done a triathlon?<br>2. Any tips for getting in shape/training?<br><br>Oh and.. I have a bad knee (though it wont stop me >D) atm so nothing too extreme or I won't even make it >.><br><br>Clozo

    =o I did 16.2 Miles.. it took me about 8 hours... I nearly died, I was so tired.. only I didnt train at all, I hadnt been on a bike for two years before I did it xD Take -lots- of high energy food & drinks. Every evening, try going for a mile or two cycle/jog and swimming is always good. Good luck! :D

    Hm... I think I am going to fail here xD<br>Just went for a half an hour ride.. not the best idea I think...<br><br>Things I learnt due to my bike ride; <br>Pumps are evil things that don't obey the 'lefty loosey, righty tighty' rule.<br> Cobweb covered wheels make strange noises. <br>A big dip in the road may look fun, but don't forget to you have to ride back up the other side. <br>If your legs feel like jelly, don't stand up. <br>And most importantly.. NEVER. EVER. Go riding when you have had only 3hrs sleep and no food all day. o.o Dx -dies-<br><br><br>I'm going to keep going though :D<br>Just eat and sleep next time >.>
