Oh, that's awful honey. I"m so sorry that you're out all that money. And what an awful thing for someone to do.

Thanks - I'm sure we'll find a better race and have a good experience there, at least.

that is just sooo terrible. i'm so sorry. it never feels good being scammed.

have you thought of doing team in training? that would be awesome for beginners. I have a friend that walks marathons and another who did the extreme stuff. they'll help you prepare for any event if you do some fundraising for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Foundation. I'd sponsor you for sure!!

you can ask fauxmiddlechild or muffinandmochi. tell them that i sent you. i've supported them both in their fundraising for Team in Training. It's very awesome for beginners. http://www.teamintraining.org/hm_tnt

if you did something with another charity group, i'd still support you. :)

I really should do something for a charity though. I'd like that a lot.

Duuuuude, he sucks! I'm sorry =( You have been working so hard! Well, think of it this way, when you do find another triathlon, you will be even more physically prepared. Have people tried to collectively sue him?
