Fitness Friday: You Know You Want To

If you are reading this hopefully it is because you were invited to my triathlon event on facebook and you want to learn more! So here it is, you should totally do it! What is holding you back?
Too busy? Its a Saturday morning for 2hrs tops, you can make time!
Babysitter? The Provo Rec Center has a daycare and only charges 2 dollars an hour per kid
Not in shape? There are plenty of options for distances, this is not a competition, its just meant to provide motivation.  And you have 2 weeks to prepare! And if you participate in next month's then you have 6 weeks to prepare.
If you have any other excuses tell me and I will surely counteract them!

Here are the options for the day of the race
Sprint Triathlon- 5k run, 12mi bike, 400m swim
Half Sprint- 2.5k run, 6mi bike, 200m swim

Very low fitness level (definitely no shame): Pick 2 events to do from the Half Sprint, or 1 event of the Sprint Triathlon
Low fitness level: All the events of the Half Sprint
Medium fitness level: Pick 2 events from the Sprint Triathlon
Hard: Entire Sprint Triathlon

Saturday Feb. 8th 8am
Admission to Rec Center $5
You time yourself!
Order of events, Run Bike Swim, this is not traditional but will make the transitions easier since we are indoors and it wouldn't be very fun to sit on a bike soaking wet.
Running on indoor track
Biking on stationary bikes (they are super nice and very similar to a road bike)
Swimming in lap pool
