Subject: Hello everyone

Just wanted to drop everyone a big Hello from Colorado!

I'm new to this start. Just started training for my first triathlon in July. I am so excited. I've always been a swimmer but NEVER a runner. I used to hate to run. Now I'm doing the aggressive Couch to 5K training schedule. I'm getting a hang of it. I keep visualizing myself running a 5K. Whoo Doggies! Life is gonna' be so sweet when I do that!

Thanks to this wonderful site (I've already started my training blog). Well it's passed my bed time. Gotta' get up at 5 a.m. and get my butt in the gym.

Happy trails to you all and have great training days.

Love Ovetta.

Welcome. You will find the forum community here to be very helpful and supportive. Below I've included a website for beginning runners which someone passed on to me.

Hi Ovetta,

I'm a raw recruit also! I plan on doing my first sprint tri @ the end of June. I did my first 5k back in October...let's just say I won't be invited to the Boston Marathon this year! Swimming is my weak link.

This is a great site! Welcome & best of luck!

Thank you all for your words of encouragement. I really appreciate them. I am soooo glad that I gave myself this goal. I haven't felt this focused in years. Let's hope race day is as good.

Happy trails and have great training days.
