I figure I'll flip on my back when I get tired and float a bit to catch my breath before going back at it.

I'm sure my technique this first time will suck big-time, but hey, that's okay!

For my first tri in a few weeks, I plan on tri shorts, sports bra for the swim, and if needed, I'll put on a compression type longer top for the bike and run.
