Subject: Hello from Essex UK
Greetings everyone. I have only just found this website and must say it looks exactly what I have been looking for the past two months.
I am 31 years old unfit, perhaps a little over weight, loves to eat the wrong food all the time and to top it all off I also smoke.
Since discovering a colleague competes in triathlons I have always had an interest and enjoy watching the tv coverage. i have started buying a tri magazine regulary and thats how I heard of this site.
I am seriously toying with the idea of competing in a few triathlons next year. So I reckon that gives me about 6 months of training.
Time to get down that Gym that I left then rejoined three weeks ago and still havent been.

Mate welcome to site, great resource for anything you need to achieve your aim. Before putting on your coat and sneaks drop the fags (you know what I mean) and then go to the gym.

Best of luck, I just started as well and find the training invigorating.

Hi Wayne,

Welcome to the site.... I'll have to agree with Athena on getting to the gym. Hey, and compared to Chicago weather right now.... the weather can't be much worst over there. If we can do it, you can too..... you have to believe in yourself. I find packing a gym bag the night before gives me good reason to take off towards the gym. Also, if you get home first before going to the gym, IMMEDIATELY change into your sports gear- you'll feel like a dork trying to watch tv in these clothes [or maybe that's just me].

Lots of luck, can't wait to hear the updates!

Milly
