Subject: G'day from Australia
G'day everyone at BT ... I am from Brisbane, Australia ... I have background in long distance swimming and long distance running but no so good with the bike ... I have never done a tri before but I am really really excited to be trying something different ... I really have no idea where to start and how to go about it ... but from the look of this website and after reading some of the forums this looks like the right place to start ... I would appreciate as much help as I can get ... I am finally motivated after a year off training. Look forward to hearing from you ... Bree

Bree,

Welcome to BT, you are right that this is a wonderful place to start. You will find much information here that will help in all your attempts at triathlons. I too am new to Tris and have learned much here. However I come from a biking background and am working at learning to run and swim. Good luck with your goals, and don't forget to use the log here to see your progress.

From one BT newbie to another.... Welcome!

Between the swimming and running, I'm suret you'll get comfortable on the bike pretty quickly. Everybody has an event they feel they're weakest in.

Keep us posted on how training is coming and when you plan to do your first race.

Welcome to B.T.! I think you'll find a great resource here in information and, of course, in positive support, which is very necessary especially in those non-motivated moments we all have. Looking forward to hearding more from you--and you must tell us all about Australia!

Hello, another one - the Aussies are taking over this site (not quite!)
Welcome and all the best with your training - sounds like you have a great background and should find triathlon a lot of fun!

Welcome and best of luck. I can say this about the website. I haven’t come across anyone that I would not like to do a run, swim or a bike with. Everyone here is so helpful and friendly. It almost feels like one big family here to support you.
