Excellent - this is positive news to hear.
I am certainly going to be covering all of the events VERY thoroughly. I plan to compete in my first sprint in July - but I plan to be copetitive for my bracket - not to "just finish"...
I live in Minnesota so open water swims are a few months out yet - but I've got pool swims until then. I've joined a cycling team and I plan to put on a lot of miles and attempt to lead my group as often as possible to gain strength in my cycling and not draft my team. I ran a lot of races and I'm a fairly strong runner. I plan to do train very efficiently - and hopefully my prisonyard style workout will be a great aid in doing that.
Feel free to ADD any techniques to the list and also feel more than free to use this for yourself as a supplemental training regimine.
See you all out there !!!
