Just having come from the anti-tri thread, I now have a question: Has anyone here done an Aquathlon? In a moment of caffeine induced enthusiasm, I just registered for the last two of the season in my state. *sigh*
Any experiences, thoughts?
peace...

My son and I sometimes do aquathons. I think there is a new fastskin unitard that is used for the the swim and run that dries off quickly... if more swimmers got interested as they cross train with running, it would be much more fun.

Thanks Leslie! :D I have definitely been eyeing some of the quick-dry transition 2 piece sets: what a great excuse to buy new gear next season! I agree about the runner domination - I suspect I am going to get absolutely demolished in the run after my water exit, seeing as how it has been an earth-shattering acheivement to have finally built up to a 10 min/mile pace! It should be a lot of fun. I really like the cross-training for overall shape and cardio fitness - it definitely makes a difference.
