Subject: Ran my first sprint triathlon today! I was looking for the history of triathlons when I found this site, so I signed up as soon as I found it! I just ran my first triathlon today, the 2010 Central FloridaTriathlon Series race 1 at Clermont Waterfront Park near Orlando, FL. I have been a runner and cyclist in the past, but never a swimmer, so my training leading up to my first race was a mixture of old and new. I still have a long way to go in my swim training, but I completed todays race in 1:34, which is right where I hoped I would be. I'll be cruising the forums and trying to learn more about this new sport, and I will add posts as I continue to training and compete in events around Florida and eventually the US and perhaps the world. |
