Never done one. Just trying to get in shape to do one.

I'm confused too. I just did a search and looked at about a dozen races across the country for both international and Olympic distances. They all had the same lengths. 1.5k, 40k, 10k. I even went to the ITU page and Olympic.org page for definitions – both the same.

The only difference I saw was ITU allows for up to 5% variance in the lengths for the bike and run.

ANYWAY - My longest is an Olympic/International. An HIM and IM or in my future......

IM Moo, baby!!

To those that are working towards their first Tri (sprint, Oly, or whatever), good luck. To those that have finished a Tri, congratulations!

To those that have finished their first Ironman - YOU .. ARE .. AN .. IRONMAN!!

To those above that, you're nuts!

I'll finally be able to reply to this five days from now...

(My wave start at Malibu this Sunday: 7:50am...my wife gets to wait around to go out in the very last wave for her first tri, poor thing, at 8:20...at least I know I'll be able to get my camera and get back to the finish line before she crosses it...)

Olympic for me.

But pretty soon we're going to need to add a Triple Iron category just for Gina (gvrfrog).

Sprints only for me, so far, though I would like to do an Oly next year.

Did anyone else start with Duathlons the first season, then work on your swim over the winter and do a Triathlon the following year?

amiine - 2007-09-11 2:27 PM only HIM, don't really like the long stuff...

Ditto.  I'll do my first marathon (likely) this coming winter in a warm, southern place, but do NOT see an Ironman in my future.  It's just somehow excessive for my liking.  Half-Iron distance seems just right for a real challenge without crippling me for a week or two.

Started in 02 with relays then mini sprints. Did my first half ironman in 05, followed by an Olympic (backwards was I). Never really even dreamed of ironman until the day before I signed up for Ironman Florida. I finished that last November. I have only done sprints this year.
