...I would ever do a triathlon. I'm 43 & did 6 sprint tris this year and have a goal to do an olympic distance tri next year.

I entered my first tri on May as way to keep motivated between our annaul 15k run, The River Run. Now I'm kind of hooked and have additionally developed cycling as a hobby. I started running 4 years ago, I proceeded to lose 45 pounds but did not find running or entering running events as interesting as triathlons. I also swam competitively years ago and really enjoy getting back in the water.

So, this site is great, I am still trying to figure out the best training regiman & plenty of good advice here.
