With very minimal training I took this triathlon on and to my surprise, I think I did well! It was an indoor triathlon, meaning that the swim was in a 25 meter swimming lane, the cycling portion was on a Aerodyne bike, and the run was 24 laps on an indoor track.
It was really enjoyable, I met a few new tri friends who pumped me up! I must admit, that Aerodyne bike was challenging - as I pedaled, a fan in the front produced resistance against me and it was like riding right into the wind! I felt my legs getting sore near mile 6, so I knew the run would be painful. And it was. But I never stopped running! I finished first in my heat for swimming and biking! But I was tired by the run, and that's not my strong suit in the first place. So I ended up getting lapped :-/ I still came in second for my age group though! So I was very satisfied!
