Just looking for thoughts!
When do you progrerss from a Newbie to the next level? What would be call the next level?
Seems like there are a lot of newbies that are turning into the next level, as they start to race in their first season. My first race is in a little over 2 weeks. I call myself a newbie now but what will I be after?

juleso, currently a pending triathlete (until June 6th, after which I hope to be a newbie).
Or Steven the new triathlete who stupidly left his run shoes with his wife instead of transition and only realised during the swim and spent about 3mins telling one of the marshalls that my shoes were not where I needed them!!!
I am a rookie!!
I’m guessing I can no longer can call myself a virgin.. I’ve done it twice.. only once properly (I only count it once..).. but I kind a experimented with it before.. but that doesn’t count right?? It wasn’t the right situation and I wasn’t really ready for it...
Through all my practicing (often with aids/toys) and simulating (in the shower, trying it while I’m wet) I still manage to be a complete nervous wreck before the actual time to get stuck in comes...
I’ve studied loads of the books and magazines.. spent hours and hours (often after the wife has given up on me and gone to bed) on the internet trying to glean new bits of information and increase my chances of success...
I’ve share all my stories (good and bad experiences) with my forum pals.. I’ve even shown them some photos of me doing it!!!
But the truth of the situation is as much as I think I can do it.. and I really believe I’m a king at doing it.. I suspect I’m nothing more than inexperience, over enthusiastic amateur.. probably going to be shown up by a pretty person with a red carbon shiney thingy...
At least our faces are the right colour!

any suggestions any one
