If you can get in some good time in the pool in between now and your marathon and then kick-up the bike workouts afterwards, I think you'll be fine; especially given that you can really do any swim stroke to get through a tri and that you've spent some good time on the trainer over the winter. Just be sure to do some bike to run bricks beforehand. Drop me an e-mail if you have any questions. In the meantime, good luck in your mary next week!

Positive reinforcement is a much nicer way to teach. Good job! Sounds like you have a great swim coach. Positive reinforcement is a much nicer way to teach.

Good luck doing a tri so soon after a marathon. Ugh. And swimming is so taxing. At least, to me it is. Good luck doing a tri so soon after a marathon. Ugh.

Lessons are the way to go. Open water swimming should be a bit of a challenge, but you have a ton of lakes for practice (10,000 right!). Happy tapering and remember to rest. Great work!
