Just focus on that beer !
Yeah, the first time I tried to run 10K i did alright on the first half (usually run 5k) but the second half I still ran 70% of and got home in under an hour, was well proud of myself, want to get up to running the whole of that distance.

I'm similar mate although my run is probably my weekness on a short distance. I was slow onthe swim but made a load of places back up on the bike before loosing half of them on the run.

Yep, thats what I did for my first Tri. Did a sprint triathlon, 300m pool swim, 22k bike and a 5k run and finished in under 1hr 24m
9:20 in the pool, 2:40 in the first transition (failed at putting socks on), 44:33 on the bike, 1:40 in the second transition and 25:37 on the run

I felt like I could of pushed harder in places and got close on the 1hr 20m mark

They also do super sprint triathlons that are about half the above distances
