Hi,

 I have just committed myself to getting back in shape and I want to get back in to tri's.  Are there small local groups that train together?  I am looking for a group that has a wide range of times, because I am on the slower side.

 If anyone knows please advise me.

Thanks,

Greg

Greg:

I am also new at this (started this week but training for 2 months) and have been asking the same Q.  I live in Lithia.

What I've found is that there are not really any organized group trainings.  Most people do it as they can fit in their schedules.  Please, let me know if you get some positive responses, I am interested too.

I know there are training groups in St Pete (The Pier and North Side Pool), that's closer to you than it is to me.  USF Tampa has a club and organized bike rides and events.

Keep it up!

For cycling, you can try to hook up with these guys: http://www.smbc.us/ridesold.html

The St Pete Mad dogs have a number of scheduled training events. I usually join them for a Wed night swim/run at Pass-a-Grill beach. Google them if you're up for the ride to St Pete.

I might do a training tri at Ft Desoto a couple weekends from now. If so, I'll post details here.

There are several group ride choices in Sarasota.  They ride out in Lake Wood Ranch as well as out on Longboat.  Check out the Village Bikes website for more info.

Also there is the Sarasota Shaks Tri Club.  They have group swims, runs and rides but many of them are in the south end of the county.

The Sarasota Manatee Bike Club (as already posted) has a lot of rides but they all tend to be in the middle of the day (I guess for the retired folks?)
