Subject: Beginner in PA Hello all! I am 29 years old and new and yet to compete a tri, and am looking to train this fall/winter/spring with a goal of entering a race in early summer 2015 for my 30th birthday. Depending on how my initial 20 weeks of training goes I will decide whether I will do a sprint or tackle an olympic to begin with. I have been involved in various competitive sports throughout my life. I have mostly settled in to running and spinning the last few years, and I am looking for a challenge and a goal. I was a lifeguard in high school/college, but have not swam strokes in a long time, and while I have been spinning a lot, I do not have any real experience on the road. I have been lurking for a few days, and this seems like a great community for advice. |
