Hey! I was looking around on the internent today for triathlon information and stumbled across this site!!

I am in Lincoln and have always dreamed of training for and competing in a triathlon!! I currently bike,run,swim and strenght train but dont know what a true triathlon training program would look like!

I am a college student joining the UNL cycling team this fall and have been in contact with several of the members who have helped me alot with cycling info and getting started..

Mainly I am just looking to see if there are other beginners in Lincoln also just getting into traithlons? Or if there are triathlon training groups? I currently run about 4-5 miles, swim about 3/4 mile (without really stopping, but I am not very fast) and bike between 40-50 miles ( I am most experienced on the bike) and would love to meet others from the area also beginning training!!

Looks like a really neat site!!

Welcome to the site.  There are quite a few of us around Beatrice, Lincoln, and Omaha areas.  This site is a lot of fun and has a lot of good info.  Good luck with training.

Wecome!

You are one step away from becoming a triathlete....SIGN UP for one. Sounds like you in great shape, and all you need to do is go give one a shot. Seriously, if I can do it...YOU can!!!!

Next one is in Council Bluffs (lake manawa) on Sat. Aug, 22nd. Olympic distance (swim 1000m, bike 21mi, run 6.2mi) I am going to give it a shot, even though my running sucks, and I have not ran 6mi in some time.

Welcome to BT! My wife (BT and real name: Brynn) and I live here in Lincoln too. Sounds like you're on the right path and like Fifthcircle said - sign up for one! Great to have you here
