looks to be a very flat course. no real climbs, but not a flat-flat course. looks to be a good course.

i guess i can see both sides.

you start floating in the water, basically treading water.

just curious on your mindset. i've met a few people that have done a triathlon just to cross it off the bucket list and never do one again. and there are those that get really into the sport and it become a lifestyle. i guess i wish you would reconsider doing the half iron man right away. it takes a lot to build to it. and…

i take full responsibility for my achievements and short comings, thank you very much.

yup,. fully aware of the distances you're doing. i did my first half iron man in September, after having done a few sprints and olympics, and a handful of half marathons. fyi, running a half marathon and running a half marathon after swimming 1.2 miles and cycling 56 miles are two very different things. do you think that…

i know many runners, and very very few run every day. most that i know only run 4-5 days a week max. if you are still at the point that you need a walk break, you are from from the "run every day" stage.

for short course races, i think bike-run bricks can be a great addition to a training plan to add variety and really get some good training for your legs. for long course, yes, a 1-2 mile run after your long bike ride is better. the closest i've gotten to a swim-bike brick is riding to the pool (or beach) for a swim and…

don't let you?? as if anyone has any kind of responsibility to you and your fitness other than yourself?? grow up.

a trainer is a great idea, but i think it's not really for the beginner triathlete. honestly, i don't think a 70.3 is for a beginner either, but hey, this guy is committed to his goals. i recommend getting out there and putting miles on the bike, and in the pool. you have an incredible base for the run, so i recommend…

they would need to go to your diary, and copy the meal to their diary. then they can save the meal to their meals (not recipe).

it's usually the last area you really lose from. sorry. but good luck!!

nah. some of the fittest people i know indulge in an occasional drink.

i'd say the runners and cyclists hate each other... and they both hate triathletes. but the stores might have some good resources. probably a combination of both stores.

well, this is a twist

i cannot emphasize enough that you need to get out and go for a run after your long bike ride. even a mile after your ride is very important. after riding for so long, you will feel that you are going slow when you start to run. too many people go waaaaaay too fast on the first couple of miles on the run, and burn…

it's not hard to wake up early. you just prefer to sleep. that's fine. one day you will change your habits to reflect your preferences.

some of the best workouts i've done when i've been sore af. for me, after a long run on sunday, there is nothing like a nice swim or easy bike ride on monday to workout the build up of lactic acid.

you are probably over hydrating immediately before your run.

buy yourselves some bikes and go for rides together.

it's easy to be disciplined if you are never tempted.

i slather my feet in aquaphor to help reduce friction
