Anyone training for a triathlon?

I just started training to try out a triathlon in March --- I would love to find some buddies to help inspire in the running, swimming and cycling arena I am on week 5 of the couch to 5k, tonight was my first "feels good" slog...."slow jogging" I hope I can get faster. I struggle with the running the most -- hopefully there some people out there that are interested in being buddies

Hi There! I'm always training for my triathlon, so I'd love to be buddies. If you haven't done a tri yet...just wait! It is addicting and sooo inspiring. I love your "photo" by the way.. such a good depiction of how we feel!

I competed and finished my first triathlon last August in Syracuse, NY. Iron Girl. I will be doing two and one-third TRIs this year. I am doing Iron Girl in Racine, WI as I have children that live in IL and will be able to visit them at the same time as race and Iron Girl in Syracuse, NY again. Both Iron Girls are sprint TRIs. In September I will be competing in the race portion of Syracuse 70.3 Half Iron Man and swimming 1.2 miles. It is definitely addicting!

I certainly wasn't in shape last year and still competed. This winter I am concentrating on a more nutritional training for my TRIs this summer. You can do it even if you aren't "in shape".

I completed my first tri last July. I loved it, it was such an amazing experience. It was an all women event which was great, everyone was really nice and motivating. I can't wait for it again this year and I am looking for more as well. I love the multisport aspect of it.

I'm training for a 10k right now, but looking to do a sprint tri later in the year. I need to take swimming lessons to get some feedback on my technique....

Good luck! I did my first race about five or six years ago and I was hooked! I'm still debating this year's race schedule, but am signed up for an International dx race in November. I just need to figure out which other races and how many between now and November.

I'll be happy to join you as you work toward this goal.

I'm training for my first sprint triathlon in May. I'm completely new to the sport and new to this website so any advice/support/motivation would be much appreciated!
