I'm new to the Tri scene but I think the following will be a fun schedule to always have something to look forward to doing. What are your thoughts on the timing of each event and distances? I'm a beginner now but looking to get into the top 10 of a couple of sprints. As long as I get my swimming in line this fall and winter I think I'll be in good shape.
