Hi...my name is Robb and I have set a goal to complete a triathlon in June of 2005. I have just lost 65 lbs since January 2oth and still have about 70 more to reach my goal weight (I was 335 lbs and I am now 270). I started training last week and have been in the pool (I swam 1000 yds, with rest, my first time out which I was happy about), on my mountain bike up to 4 miles (I am looking to by a road bike for trianing) and also have worked toward jog/walking for 20 minutes.

I am the Executive Director of a faith-based nonprofit org that works with juvenile offenders and the training has already begun to decrease my stress. I am exited about learning from you all!

Blessings,

Robb

hello everyone, I'm a 36 year old and have just started training for my first triathlon.
My main interests before this were cycling (time trials) and karate.
Any tips and help over the coming months would be most welcome. I have set a goal for my first race for october this year.
look forward to hearing from you all....
