Subject: New and gasping for air! Hi there guys,
I have my first triathlon coming up in August in London. I have never competed in a triathlon/duathlon. My only competitive event is running. The tri in London is at Olympic level. Have I bitten off more than I can chew?
I can run well, and i can cycle, but swimming is my down fall. I just started today, the first time in a loooonnnnggg time and I really remember why I don't swim. I have breathing issues, I always feel like I'm gasping and I have very little stamina which is crazy as I can run for extended periods as an ok rate. I really don't know where to start with this. Can anyone point me in the direction of a training plan specifically for people like me, or can you give me some advice on what I should be doing, because right now I'm feeling a little lost. I'm doing a lot of different training with no real direction.
