Subject: talked myself into it
So I'm an avid runner half marathon being my farthest. My friends and I were talking about doing a team tri. So I started looking at tri races, I have a friend that does ironmans so that's all I know. I see the sprint distances. I thought if I can run 13,1 I can probably finish a sprint standing up. So there is my goal. I'm hitting the pool for the first time in the morning and see how it goes. I'm nervous but at the same time excited to join to the ranks of a triathlete. I will never be an ironwoman, I don't have any desire to do a full marathon. This is something different to use different muscles, and still stay in shape. And I'm from Michigan

Welcome!  Yeah, with your HM experience, you should finish your sprint no problem.  That's what I like about triathlon - it used different (all) the muscles and keeps your body more balanced...as long as you stick with the swimming!

Let us know if you have any questions.

Why it’s so hard for us to talk about losing at a simple game? Sports are supposed to be about building positive character, supposed to be about fairness, equality, and striving for excellence.

As women, many times our identity is lost by all that we do and everyone that we take care of. In the end, I accomplished that and so much more. Along the way, I rejuvenated and redefined myself.
