Is my road bike good enough for a sprint triathlon?

I'm going to be doing my first triathlon next month.
I have a 4yr old Bianchi Brava (chome-moly) with about 500 miles on it. Original Alex wheels and shimano gears. I know I need to have it checked out by a mechanic but is this a good bike to do a triathlon with? It will only be about a 15-20 mile bike. The bike is kind of heavy- it weighs 25lbs but all I have attached to it is the water bottle holder.
When should I think about upgrading?
(p.s. I'm broke and unemployed!)
