I'm not sure if I've just done something REALLY stupid, but I just signed up with Team in Training, and will be doing the Philly Tri in June. It's a .9-mile swim, 26-mile bike and then a 6-mile run. In addition to the training, I need to raise $2700. YIKES!!! I'm hoping at the kickoff meeting in early February that they give us plenty of ideas on how to do that!
Guess I need to get my butt moving!

I did a team in training marathon last January in Florida. It is a ton of work, but if you have a big group you can do a group fundraiser. I didn't have a lot of support so I ended up paying in some money, but some people that I sent letters to that I never thought would donate were my biggest donaters! Keep a good attitude and definitely use the website that they will provide to you at your kickoff party. More people are willing to go online and donate instead of writing a check and mailing it. You can do it. Let me know if you need more ideas.
Good for you!!!
I have been too chicken to do a tri, but I have marathoned.
11 finishes.
I hope for more, someday. After my "issues" get worked out.
