preparing for my first tri

Hello all,

I have been trail running on and off for the last few years. I did, together with colleagues, a sprint relay triathlon last summer and I really enjoyed the atmosphere around this event (mont-blanc triathlon). I also started swimming early in the summer (without triathlon in my mind) and haven't stopped since then.
Unfortunately I injured my foot in September and it is still bothering me (seeing specialist in Jan.) That is why I haven't really started training for a tri yet.

In any case this week I will start biking again (first hometrainer) and wait for the docs results before I start running again.

I have set my goal on finishing the evergreen endurance 50.8 (11 Sept) and 1 or 2 sprint as a prep but the main goal is getting comfortable in the 3 sports.

I hope the Beginner mentor program will start again in 2016, I really like the idea behind it and hope to profit from the experience of others.

I'm blessed with where I live (Jura mountains, close to the Alps), great for running and biking (hilly terrain but not too steep, forest paths, single track, low traffic roads) and work (close to a pool where I go swimming 2x per week, and not too far from lake Leman where I could do open water training when needed).

The bulk of my training will be done during lunch-breaks and bricks during the weekend.

Looking forward to my first tri season.
