Subject: RE: Never done a 5K let a lone a tri, from Utah. Welcome to BT and the wonderful world of triathlon!! If you were looking to get in shape, then you picked the right sport! Last year was my first tri and I loved it...now I'm hooked. Haven't done any competitive sports since high school, and I was a sprinter not a long distance guy. Tri not to think of your tri as a competitive race, but a personal goal. Most people (except the more elite athletes ) aren't doing this for competitive reasons, but for personal bests. Remember, your biggest competition is yourself. Just have fun training and have fun in the race and you'll get hooked too!! If you have questions look in the forums, and don't hesitate to ask them, you will get answers. Good luck!! |
