Have entered me self into this as my first tri but have this nasty feeling that i am going to be surrounded by experienced tri peeps. Is anyone out there doing this and is this event suitable for complete novices, fancied this mainly due to the swim distance! Anyhelp greatly appreciated

Can I safely assume that breaststroke is OK? I get about 25 metres on crawl and expire (save it for the last length)
400m swim, 20km bike, 5km run
Breast stroke is OK there are no rules about which stroke you use, you can back stroke if you want to and you can hold onto the bouys or safety canoe if you need to (but you can't make any progress using them). The bike and run are flat and traffic free and the facilitys there good.
