over 40

Well I'm 45 and just started training about 6 months ago after watching a sprint triathlon. It's a challenge I know, but we all need them to make our lives interesting. Any other over 40's out there with some advice send it my way...

I'm 32.. Can't vote since I haven't actually _done_ the tri yet.. But, I'm registered for one in June and one in July. Just sprints - but considering I didn't know how to swim in December, I figure it's okay. =)
